Frequently asked questions
My front wheel wobbles visibly when driving slowly in Hyderabad — is this dangerous?
Visible wheel wobble is extremely dangerous — it means a critical suspension component (ball joint or wheel bearing) has severe play. If a ball joint fails completely at speed, the wheel can fold under the car causing loss of control. If a wheel bearing collapses, the wheel can detach. Do not drive at highway speeds. Bring the car to Metre Per Second immediately for a free suspension inspection — we'll identify the failing component within 15 minutes on our lift.
