The effects of a bad ball joint in a car include: 1. Producing a knocking noise when driving on bumpy roads; 2. A damaged ball joint can cause slight displacement in the suspension, leading to errors in wheel alignment data, which may result in uneven tire wear and steering deviation; 3. During braking, a loose ball joint can cause uneven braking force on both sides, leading to steering deviation when applying the brakes. Composition of the car chassis: It consists of the transmission system, steering system, running system, and braking system. Methods for maintaining the car chassis: 1. Regularly inspect the condition of important assemblies; 2. Monitor the wear of brake pads and clutch plates; 3. Perform wheel alignment periodically; 4. Pay attention to tire pressure and wear conditions.
