Common local problems in La Jolla
Dust and grit accumulation near the spring drum

UV-related cable sheathing fade
Prolonged direct sun exposure typical of this climate can fade and gradually weaken exposed cable sheathing faster than in milder regions.
Heat-driven spring lubricant breakdown
Intense sun exposure and sustained high temperatures can dry out spring lubricant faster than in milder climates, increasing coil friction and wear.
Thermal expansion on torsion bar hardware
Large day-to-night temperature swings cause the torsion bar and mounting hardware to expand and contract, which can gradually affect spring alignment.
