What happens if I do not replace worn-out shock absorbers?
Shock absorbers are an integral part of the suspension system that prevent premature wear on the suspension parts and tyres. This, in turn, ensures that your car's ability to stop, steer and maintain stability are not compromised. Shock absorbers also work to reinforce tyre contact with the road and regulate the transfer of the vehicle's weight among the wheels when negotiating corners and braking.
Therefore, it is important that you replace your shock absorbers when they are worn.
