The\u00a0damage usually happens gradually and people tend to adjust their driving without realizing they’re compensating for the loss in control.\u00a0 The control arm, shocks and struts<\/strong> aren’t as obvious as a\u00a0flat tire, a blinking light or an empty fuel gauge so here are some warning signs.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_empty_space height=”15″][vc_single_image image=”318″ img_size=”full” el_id=”serviceimage” css=”.vc_custom_1539566706185{margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”2\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1540203153078{margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-right: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1539564109346{margin-right: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;border-left-width: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_inner offset=”vc_hidden-lg vc_hidden-md vc_hidden-sm”][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1540203230667{margin-left: 0px !important;}”][mk_fancy_title tag_name=”h3″ color=”#777777″ size=”22″ font_weight=”bold” txt_transform=”uppercase” margin_bottom=”0″ font_family=”Oswald” font_type=”google” responsive_align=”left” el_class=”warningsigns”]Shocks \/ Struts[\/mk_fancy_title][mk_divider style=”thick_solid” margin_top=”5″ margin_bottom=”5″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1540195522675{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]An easy way to determine if you need to replace your shocks or struts is to take a quick glance down at your odometer, most manufacturers recommend replacing your shocks and struts every 96,000 – 160,000 Kilometers.<\/p>\n

Have you been in a situation that required you quickly slam on the\u00a0brakes? Stopping hard and fast with worn shocks\u00a0or struts forces your vehicle to\u00a0nosedive, the sudden transfer of weight forward naturally causes the rear of the\u00a0vehicle to rise and reduces the rear braking performance the result is poor traction and the perfect conditions for an accident.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner offset=”vc_hidden-lg vc_hidden-md vc_hidden-sm”][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1539564190762{margin-right: 0px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;}”][mk_fancy_title tag_name=”h3″ color=”#777777″ size=”22″ font_weight=”bold” txt_transform=”uppercase” margin_bottom=”0″ font_family=”Oswald” font_type=”google” responsive_align=”left” el_class=”warningsigns”]Control Arm[\/mk_fancy_title][mk_divider style=”thick_solid” margin_top=”5″ margin_bottom=”5″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1540203952934{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]The control arm<\/strong> varies in shape depending on the vehicle but is always in an east-west direction when looking down at a car. They are called a control arm because they do exactly that, from the chassis they control the whole wheel hub assembly, so it’s quite a robust article and a critical one.<\/p>\n

Your typical control arm will become bent and worn out and require replacement around the 160,000 kilometre mark.
