Description
The most critical job of a shock absorber is keeping your tires pressed against the road. Every time your wheel bounces upward, it briefly loses contact with the pavement. During that split second, you have zero traction for steering, accelerating, or braking. A properly functioning shock absorber pushes the tire back down quickly and prevents repeated bouncing, keeping the vertical force on the tire consistent.
Shock absorbers wear gradually and signs you’ll notice yourself include the car bouncing excessively after bumps, the nose diving noticeably under braking, uneven tire wear, or a vague floaty feeling at highway speeds. Any of these suggest the shocks have lost enough damping force to affect both comfort and safety.
