Common Symptoms Signs of a Worn CV Axle

Constant velocity, or CV joints and axles are some of the hardest working drivetrain components on a vehicle. They perform their job silently day in and day out, and since they generally require no maintenance, they’re often forgotten, but they will wear over time, and if not replaced, a worn CV joint will eventually fail.
Although there are always warning signs, they are sometimes mild, and they are often ignored or misdiagnosed. To prevent a costly and inopportune break down, there are many common symptoms to recognize as early indicators of a worn CV joint, and there are also some common customer complaints that quickly point in the direction of a CV joint or axle problem.
