Shock Absorbers

Shock absorbers are very important to the overall stability and handling of your vehicle. Worn out shocks can be easily missed by drivers.

Why is it important to replace worn out shocks? Aren’t they only to cushion my car when I go over pot holes?

No, shock absorbers help balance the weight of your vehicle on high speed. When changing lanes in the freeway it is your shocks that give you stability and ride control. Worn out shock absorbers cause many disadvantages:

• Improper and even unsafe car handling
• Uncomfortable riding, many times even noisy and bumpy
• Improper wear of tires (worn shocks will damage your tires)
• Shocks keep your tires firmly set on the road thus giving you more control of your vehicle
