Tesla Camber Arm Problems: Causes, Symptoms, and Solutions

tesla amber control problems

Camber arm problems are common in Tesla models such as Model S, Model 3, Model X, and Model Y. When these issues arise, they can cause uneven tire wear, reduced handling performance, and safety risks. Understanding the causes and symptoms of camber arm failure is essential to maintaining your Tesla’s suspension system. In this post, we’ll cover why camber arms matter, common issues, and how DREV Repair can help.

What Are Camber Arms and Why Are They Important?

Camber arms are part of your Tesla’s suspension system, controlling the camber angle—the tilt of your tires relative to the road.

• Correct Camber Angle ensures even tire wear and optimal traction.

• Misaligned Camber can lead to inner or outer tire wear, poor stability, and reduced cornering performance.

For modified or lowered vehicles, adjustable camber arms are crucial for maintaining the right suspension geometry.

Common Causes of Tesla Camber Arm Problems

1. Wear and TearThe bushings and joints in camber arms deteriorate over time due to road vibrations and driving stress.

2. Impact DamageHitting potholes or curbs can bend or break the camber arm, affecting wheel alignment.

3. Poor Suspension AdjustmentsImproper alignment can leave the camber angle off, accelerating tire wear.

4. Corrosion and RustProlonged exposure to moisture and salt can weaken camber arms and reduce their effectiveness.

Symptoms of Camber Arm Problems

• Uneven Tire Wear: Excessive wear on the inner or outer edge of tires.

• Poor Handling: Reduced traction and instability during cornering.

• Steering Pulling: Vehicle drifts to one side due to misalignment.

• Noisy Suspension: Clunking or squeaking noises from worn bushings.
