What are Shocks?
Shocks, or shock absorbers, serve the purpose of absorbing the impact of uneven terrain while driving, preventing the car from bouncing and ensuring a smooth ride for both you and your passengers.
Additionally, shocks enhance the handling of your vehicle, aiding in maintaining proper alignment around curves and ensuring stability on the highway at higher speeds. It’s important to note that shocks are distinct from struts but should be replaced simultaneously if your vehicle is equipped with both.
