When you think about the parts of your vehicle that commonly need to be serviced, shocks and struts usually aren’t the first things you think of. After all, this essential feature of your vehicle is one that most people don’t think of until they start to see issues. If you suspect your suspensions or struts are beginning to wear down, bring your vehicle to Sunrise Chevrolet’s service center to have them looked at by one of our experienced ASE-certified technicians.

We all want to enjoy a smooth, comfortable ride every time we get behind the wheel. If your ride is excessively bouncy, swaying, or just overall uncomfortable, that could be a sign that the shocks and strut are no longer functioning as well as they used to. The shocks and struts absorb energy and support the vehicle’s weight, while also providing a more balanced ride and improved vehicle control.

If a part of this system begins to wear down and fail, not only will your driving experience be rougher, but will unsafer as well. The vehicle’s suspension helps keep the vehicle balanced during turns and other change-of-direction maneuvers. If you need to turn suddenly, the vehicle can sway in the opposite direction and flip if the suspension is too poor to distribute the energy properly.

That’s why it’s so important that you don’t wait. If you’ve noticed your vehicle is extra bouncy lately, bring it into Sunrise Chevrolet in Glendale Heights at your earliest convenience. Call to schedule an appointment at (630) 942-8300 or click the button to use our online service scheduler.
