Question:
How do I get back that "new car ride"?
Imagine falling in love with your automobile all over again. You know, having the same sense of
pride you felt when you first drove off the dealer's lot.
Possible? With a tiny elbow grease applied to the exterior and interior, and a mechanical inspection by a reliable
automobile technician, just about anything is possible.
Take that "new car" ride, for instance. It could have been thousands of miles since your vehicle has delivered
exact steering reply and a snug, factory-fresh ride, but replacing some worn undercar parts could make a big
difference in your driving experience.
Replacing worn shock absorbers and/or McPherson struts is one straightforward way to enhance ride and handling.
Ride control replacement can have crucial safety benefits as well, since shocks and struts play key roles in a
vehicle's steering, stopping and stability performance.
"Steering, stopping and stability are reliant on correctly working brake, steering and suspension parts," announced
Mark Christiaanse, director of product management for Tenneco Inc.'s Monroe brand of shocks and struts.
"A worn shock absorber or strut might not only make your ride less cosy, but it also could
lead to increased stopping distance, reduced steering precision and degraded stability in some
situations."
Monroe recommends replacing worn shocks and struts at fifty thousand miles. For many popular-selling vehicles,
replacing worn ride control parts that have been driven for fifty thousand miles or more can improve the auto's
handling traits and comfort, according to Christiaanse. ( Actual mileage may vary depending on driver ability,
vehicle type, and kind of driving and road conditions. )
"A new set of shocks or struts can make a huge difference in overall ride quality," he declared. "Replacing these
and other worn parts helps bring the vehicle closer to its original performance, which is a great way to enhance
your driving experience."
Will They Have The Right Parts?
In most cases, it's not critical to depend on a car dealership for replacement shocks, struts and other undercar
components. A leading ride control brand such as Monroe probably offers exact-fit, model-specific shocks and struts
for virtually each favored import and domestic vehicle. In fact, Monroe shocks and struts are engineered to meet or
exceed the original units' ride and handling performance, regardless of make or model.
