Shocks and Struts Inspection/Repair: Ensure a Smooth and Safe Ride
We understand how important your vehicle’s suspension system is for both comfort and safety. Shocks and struts are key components of your vehicle’s suspension, responsible for absorbing bumps, reducing vibrations, and maintaining stability on the road. Over time, however, these parts can wear out, leading to a rough ride and compromised handling.
That’s where we come in. We can perform a thorough inspection and provide the necessary repairs to keep your vehicle’s suspension in top shape, ensuring a smooth, comfortable, and safe driving experience.
Why Shocks and Struts Matter
Your vehicle’s suspension system helps keep your tires in contact with the road while providing a comfortable ride. Shocks and struts work together to absorb the impact of bumps, potholes, and rough terrain. Here’s what they do:
- Shocks: These dampen the impact and rebound of the springs, helping to control the vehicle’s motion. They are primarily responsible for keeping your car steady when driving over uneven surfaces.
- Struts: Struts are a more complex component that combines the function of the shock absorber with a structural element of the suspension system. They support the weight of the vehicle and help maintain proper alignment.
When shocks and struts start to fail, they can affect your vehicle’s handling, braking, and overall stability, making it more difficult to control and increasing the risk of an accident.
Signs You Need Shocks and Struts Service
Knowing when to have your shocks and struts inspected is important for maintaining the safety and comfort of your vehicle. Here are a few signs that indicate it’s time for a service or repair:
- Bumpy or Uncomfortable Ride: If you feel every bump in the road or your ride has become noticeably rougher, your shocks or struts may be worn out.
- Uneven Tire Wear: Worn shocks or struts can cause uneven tire wear, as the suspension may not be keeping the tires in proper contact with the road.
- Vehicle Nose Diving or Squatting: If your vehicle dives forward when you brake or squats in the rear when accelerating, this could be a sign of worn shocks or struts.
- Leaking Fluid: If you notice any fluid leaking from your shocks or struts, it’s a sure sign they need to be replaced or repaired.
- Poor Handling or Instability: If your vehicle feels unstable when turning, sways excessively, or feels out of control, it could be a result of a failing suspension system.
- Increased Stopping Distance: A compromised suspension can increase your vehicle’s stopping distance, which can be dangerous in emergency situations.
