When To Replace Your Vehicles Shocks & Struts

Replace Your Shocks and Struts at Gilbert Chevrolet

Getting a smooth ride from your vehicle shouldn't be a struggle. Your vehicle's shocks and struts keep you from feeling bumps on the road. Without routine maintenance, shocks and struts will start to wear down - you'll feel every pothole and every bump along the way. Don't let your vehicle get to that point! The service team at Gilbert Chevrolet can service your car and get you back on the road as quickly as possible!

What Do Shocks and Struts Do?

Your shocks and struts help give your vehicle a smooth ride by supporting your vehicle's weight and keeping your wheel in contact with the road. High-quality shock and strut systems prevent you from feeling bumps in the road by absorbing the impact, so you don't deal with them from the driver's seat. When they begin to fail, you'll notice it - the ride will become bumpier and harder to deal with.

Signs Your Vehicle Needs New Shocks and Struts

As your Chevy's parts wear down, you'll find signs that may indicate you need to have them replaced. For your shocks and struts, this can include:

  • You Experience a Bumpy or Shaky Ride
  • Your Vehicle Has Poor Steering Response
  • You Feel Stiffness While Steering Your Vehicle

If you notice any of these signs occurring, it may indicate that it's time for new shocks and struts. The service experts at our dealership will get you back on the road with genuine Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts for replacements, ensuring that you'll enjoy many miles before you need your next service appointment!
