What Are Shocks and Struts?
Shock absorbers, or shocks, help keep your vehicle moving smoothly. Because of the shocks, you don’t feel your vehicle bouncing as it drives over all the bumps in the road. They’re also important when it comes to your safety; without shock absorbers, the wheels would bounce up and down instead of staying in contact with the road. The struts are what connect the wheels to the body of the vehicle. Shocks and struts are both parts of your suspension system; some vehicles have only shocks, some have only struts, and some have both. No matter which combination your Ford has, they are an important part of keeping your vehicle’s drive smooth.
