The Best Nissan Shocks And Struts

When you're driving, your ride comfort depends on the quality of the factory shocks or struts in your Nissan vehicle. They serve the same purpose but differ in that struts are an integral part of the vehicle's suspension and steering systems. Shocks are an independent part.

How Shocks and Struts Work

Both shocks and struts control the activity of the suspension system's springs. When they're working as they should, they reduce the amount of body roll your vehicle experiences during turns and curves. They also keep your wheels aligned, which provides maximum grip for your tires. You enjoy superior handling and braking, making for a more assured, controlled driving experience.

Warning Signs of Bad Shocks or Struts

Regularly driving on rough roads can eventually cause your shocks or struts to begin to fail. Check yours if you experience any of the following:

• A bumpier ride than usual
• You pull to one side when you brake
• Your suspension bottoms out when you back out of your driveway
• You notice a greasy film on the shocks or struts

It's uncomfortable when you drive on bad shocks or struts. More importantly, it's also unsafe. Fortunately, you usually have time to resolve the issue when you first notice problems.
