Mazda Ball Joints

Is It Safe to Drive With a Bad Ball Joint?

No, it is not safe to drive with a bad ball joint. Excessive tire wear, steering problems, and suspension failure can all be caused by defective ball joints in a car's suspension system. These problems may lead to loose or erratic steering, which could jeopardize safety while turning sharply or at high speeds. A damaged ball joint can also result in uneven tire wear, which lowers tire longevity and grip and raises the possibility of sliding or losing control. If the suspension fails completely, the wheel may detach from the vehicle, leading to serious accidents. Symptoms of a bad ball joint include clunking noises, loose steering, uneven tire wear, and front-end vibration.
