Your vehicle’s shocks and struts are key components of the suspension system, helping deliver a smooth ride, stable handling, and improved braking performance. As they wear over time, you may notice excessive bouncing, poor handling, uneven tire wear, or reduced control when driving over bumps, around corners, or during sudden stops.
At **Kwik Kar Oil Change & Auto Care in Irving, TX**, our ASE-certified technicians provide professional shock and strut inspections, repairs, and replacement services to restore ride comfort, improve vehicle stability, and enhance overall driving safety. Using quality replacement parts and expert workmanship, we’ll help ensure your suspension system performs the way it was designed.
Shocks and struts help control suspension movement by absorbing bumps and reducing excessive bouncing. They also help maintain tire contact with the road, improving handling, steering response, and braking performance.
While both serve a similar purpose, struts are an integral part of the suspension and steering system, while shocks primarily control suspension movement and ride comfort.
Worn suspension components can affect both safety and performance. Common warning signs include:
If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s important to schedule a suspension inspection as soon as possible.
While replacement intervals vary by vehicle and driving conditions, many manufacturers recommend inspecting shocks and struts around 50,000 miles. Over time, these components experience millions of movement cycles and naturally wear down.
Routine inspections can help identify worn suspension components before they cause additional wear to tires, steering components, or other suspension parts.
Our technicians perform a thorough evaluation of your vehicle’s suspension system, including:
By identifying suspension issues early, we can help prevent more costly repairs and improve overall vehicle performance.
When replacement is necessary, our technicians install quality suspension components designed to meet manufacturer specifications. Because suspension components wear together, replacing shocks or struts in pairs is often recommended to maintain balanced handling and ride quality.
Following replacement, a wheel alignment may also be recommended to ensure proper tire wear and steering performance.
