What We See From Upper Marlboro Drivers
The mix of Route 4, Route 301 and rural county roads is hard on suspension and tires. Uneven surfaces and shoulder edges do more alignment damage than smooth highway miles.
We see a steady stream of alignment, suspension and tire work from this area, along with the cooling-system and transmission complaints that come with higher-mileage vehicles.
