Shocks and struts are vital parts of your vehicle’s suspension system, helping to absorb road impact, maintain tire contact, and keep your car stable during turns and stops.
In this video, Arnold Auto Repair explains how shocks and struts work, the signs of wear, and how professional replacement improves comfort and safety on every drive.
Over time, shocks and struts wear out due to constant motion, rough roads, and normal aging. When that happens, you may notice a bouncy or rough ride, excessive body roll when cornering, nose-diving during braking, or uneven tire wear.
These symptoms mean your suspension is no longer keeping the tires firmly on the road, which can affect traction, braking distance, and steering control.
At Arnold Auto Repair, our ASE-certified technicians perform detailed suspension and steering inspections to check for leaks, damage, or weakened components. When replacement is needed, we install quality shocks and struts matched to your vehicle’s make and model.
We also verify ride height, wheel alignment, and suspension geometry to ensure your car handles like new again.
Replacing worn shocks and struts not only improves ride comfort but also helps extend tire life and enhances your vehicle’s overall safety and stability.
