The damage of automobile ball joints will cause the following four common effects:

1. The ball joint is loose, which will produce abnormal noise when driving to the bumpy road. 2. Slight displacement of chassis suspension and wrong data of four wheels will cause tire eccentric wear and direction deviation. 3. When braking, there is force error on both sides, resulting in brake deviation. 4. The ball head is too loose and easy to break when impacted by load.

The ball joint plays an important role in the suspension of the automobile chassis, which can ensure the driving stability and safety of the vehicle. When the ball joint of the vehicle is damaged, which will lead to a variety of faults, it should be repaired in the repair shop in time to avoid danger.

First, the ball joint is loose. When driving on a bumpy road, it will produce a cluttering noise, which is particularly obvious. You should drive carefully to avoid greater impact.

Second, the damage of the ball joint will cause slight displacement of the suspension, make the four-wheel alignment data error, and cause tire eccentric wear, and even direction deviation. Go to the nearby repair shop to deal with the fault as soon as possible, so as not to cause greater losses. It should be noted that after the chassis fault is handled, the four-wheel alignment needs to be done again, otherwise the fault remains the same.

Third, when braking, because the ball head is loose, the braking forces on both sides are inconsistent, resulting in the phenomenon of brake deviation.

Fourth, if the ball joint looseness is too large, the pull rod and support arm connected with the ball joint will break or even fall off when impacted by the load.

Therefore, when the ball joint of the vehicle is loose or abnormal noise occurs, it is necessary to go to the repair shop immediately to avoid minor faults leading to major problems.
