Warning signs include bouncy or drifting handling, excessive nose-diving when braking, or uneven tire wear. Worn shocks and struts reduce stability and safety. A suspension inspection typically covers shocks, struts, springs, and bushings. Over time, these components wear out-usually between 50,000 and 100,000 miles. Castle CDJR of Naperville's Service Department will diagnose suspension issues and recommend repairs using quality OEM-equivalent parts. Proper suspension keeps your ride smooth and your vehicle stable. If you've noticed rough handling or bouncing, call (630) 864-6683 for a free suspension check.
