Check Your Struts
There are "tell-tale" signs of bad shocks...
- Bounce Test: Go to each corner of your car and bounce as many times as you'd like. It should stop bouncing within 1 1/2 to 2 bounces. If it bounces more the car may need shocks.
- Leaks: Look around the area of the shock to look for a hydraulic fluid leak
- Tire Wear: If you have spots wearing in uneven patterns throughout your tire that is a sign the tire is bouncing excessively due to weak shocks.
Call the Ripley's location nearest you or come on in to get your shocks checked. Fixing them now is not only the safest plan but it might save you a few dollars in prevented tire wear.
