Your shock absorbers could be worn — and that’s not something to ignore.
What’s Wrong?
Worn shock absorbers reduce your car’s ability to stay stable and controlled. You may notice:
- Excessive bouncing over bumps
- Poor handling or swaying in corners
- Longer stopping distances
- Uneven or premature tyre wear
Many drivers don’t realise their shocks are failing until safety is already compromised.
Why It Matters
Shock absorbers play a critical role in keeping your tyres firmly on the road. When they’re worn:
- Braking distances can increase by up to 20%
- Steering and stability are reduced
- Tyres wear faster and unevenly
- Other suspension components suffer unnecessary stress
In short, worn shocks affect safety, comfort, and performance.
