Shock & Strut Inspection

Shock & Strut Inspection Service

Ford Shock & Strut Inspection in Charlotte, North Carolina

Remember the day that you pulled away from Tindol Ford with a new car, truck, or SUV with a smooth-handling ride? Since then, your vehicle has traversed tough terrain, turned thousands of corners, hit potholes, and maybe nudged a curb or two parallel parking. All along it has been the suspension system on your vehicle doing the tough job of softening road bumps while helping the tires stay in good contact with the road. At the heart of the suspension system are shocks and struts that ultimately handle the difficult terrain, so you don’t have to feel it in the cabin. With good shocks and struts, you get a smooth driving experience with excellent steering response. If your ride isn’t as smooth as before, a Shock & Strut Inspection is an excellent way of knowing the condition and risks associated with defective shocks and struts.
