GM Shocks & Struts

Can I Drive My Car With Bad Shocks and Struts?

No, because faulty shocks and struts can reduce vehicle stability and control, causing the car to bounce or wobble on uneven roads. This can impair steering ability and increase the likelihood of losing control during sharp turns or inclement weather. Poor performance can also increase stopping distance by limiting tire contact with the road, resulting in uneven tire wear and a reduction in tire lifespan and traction. Damaged shocks and struts can also cause unnecessary stress on other suspension components, resulting in pricey repairs. To ensure safety, comfort, and optimal vehicle performance, worn shocks and struts must be replaced as soon as possible.
