About this service

Shocks and struts do more than comfort: they keep tires planted for braking and steering. Worn units show up as float, nose-dive, bounce and cupped tire wear—symptoms that build so gradually drivers mistake them for normal aging.

Signs to have checked

The vehicle bounces or floats over undulating roads
Longer stopping distances or nose-dive under braking
Cupped or scalloped tire wear patterns
Knocking or clunking over sharp bumps

What the visit can involve

Inspection of shocks or struts and related mounts, springs and wear symptoms
A replacement recommendation based on condition and the vehicle’s suspension design
Discussion of any alignment requirements associated with the proposed work

Common questions

Does every bump noise mean the struts are worn?

No. Mounts, links, bushings and other parts can produce similar noises. The shop checks the affected area and explains which findings support a replacement rather than treating a noise alone as proof.

Will I need an alignment after replacement?

It depends on the suspension layout and the parts disturbed. Strut or steering work can affect alignment, while some shock replacements do not. The shop confirms the requirement for your vehicle.
