We Diagnose and Repair
We inspect the full suspension system and replace shocks or struts as needed—typically within 90–120 minutes.
If your car bounces excessively, feels unstable on turns, or makes noise over bumps, it’s time for an inspection. Worn shocks and struts can reduce your control and braking ability.
Shocks are standalone components that control motion, while struts are integrated with the suspension and steering systems. Some vehicles have one or both depending on the axle.
We typically replace the entire strut assembly for better performance and safety, including mounts and springs if needed.
Most services take 90 to 120 minutes, depending on your vehicle and how many components need replacement.
We always recommend replacing them in pairs (both front or both rear) to maintain balance and stability.
