Common Shock and Strut Questions, Honest Answers

1. How urgent is this? Do I need to fix it right now? That depends on how worn or damaged they are. While inspecting your vehicle, our technicians will determine whether you can wait or need to do it now. Severely worn-out shocks/struts can cause unsafe handling, poor braking performance, difficulty steering, and other non-safety issues like poor fuel economy and rapid/uneven tire wear. 
2. How often do shocks and struts need to be replaced? You can typically expect from 50,000 to 100,000 miles of service from these parts, but the range is a rough estimate because it depends on your driving habits. Carrying heavy loads, frequent travel on rough roads, and other factors can contribute to a shorter lifespan of shocks, struts, and other suspension parts.
3. What other signs of bad shocks and struts could I notice? Other common signs are:
   1. Longer braking distances
   2. Pulling to one side
   3. The rear end "squats" when you accelerate
   4. Uneven (or rapid) tire wear
   5. Clunking noise when going over bumps (can also be caused by other components failing)
   6. Fluid is visibly leaking from the shock/strut itself
   7. The vehicle body "rolls" when turning
