A ride-height adjustment system 100 for a motor vehicle 10 is provided. The ride-height adjustment system 100 comprises the suspension system of the motor vehicle. The system has a first means 28, 30, 32, to detect a preliminary end-of-journey (EOJ) event, such as seat belt unbuckling 32 or ignition switch-off 28. A controller 22 adjusts the suspension system in a first movement in response to detection of said preliminary EOJ event, to change the ride height of the vehicle towards an access ride height of the vehicle. The access ride height is a predetermined ride height that facilitates exit from and entrance to the vehicle. Second means 30 detect opening of a door of the vehicle. When the ride height of the vehicle remains different from the access ride height after said first movement, the controller is adapted to further adjust the suspension system in a second movement in response to said door-opening detection. This further changes the ride height of the vehicle towards said access ride height of the vehicle.
