How Often Should You Replace Shocks and Struts?

How Worn Shocks and Struts Affect Your Entire Vehicle

Many drivers think of shocks and struts purely in terms of ride comfort, but their condition affects far more than how smooth your drive feels. Worn suspension components place added stress on other parts of your vehicle, including your tires, brakes, and steering system. When shocks and struts can no longer properly control wheel movement, your tires lose consistent contact with the road surface. This reduces traction, increases stopping distances, and makes your vehicle harder to control in emergency maneuvers.

Degraded struts can also accelerate wear on steering linkage, ball joints, and wheel bearings—components that are significantly more expensive to replace than shocks or struts themselves. For drivers in Queens navigating potholes, uneven pavement, and heavy stop-and-go traffic, the wear on suspension components tends to accumulate faster than in areas with smoother roads. Having your shocks and struts inspected regularly at Paragon Acura is one of the most effective ways to protect your investment and maintain safe, confident handling in all driving conditions.

What to Expect During a Strut and Shock Inspection at Paragon Acura

When you bring your Acura in for a suspension inspection, our factory-trained technicians perform a thorough evaluation of the entire system. We check for visible fluid leaks, inspect the condition of strut mounts and bump stops, assess tire wear patterns for signs of suspension issues, and test ride quality through a road evaluation when appropriate. If replacement is recommended, we walk you through the findings and provide a clear explanation of the service before any work begins. Our goal is to keep you informed and confident at every step, with no surprises when it comes time to pay.
