When a high-end car runs through a bumpy road, the passengers in the car will not feel very stable and comfortable, but some cheap cars will have a roller coaster ride experience, which has a lot to do with the suspension system of the car, and the shock absorber also has a great role.

Function of shock absorber

Automobile shock absorber is a very important part of suspension system. Its main function is to restrain the spring from absorbing vibration deformation and vibration when spring rebounds, and absorb the impact force from the road. When the vehicle is driving on the uneven road, the wheels will be affected by the impact force from the ground and transmitted to the body through the springs in the suspension system, thus causing the body vibration. The spring continuously expands and contracts to absorb the shock force and quickly stabilize, so that the passengers in the car can feel comfortable and stable.

Consequences of shock absorber damage

When the shock absorber breaks down and fails, when the vehicle passes through the rough road, the body will inevitably produce bumps, and the amplitude of vibration is too large, which directly reduces the riding comfort of the drivers and passengers in the vehicle. If the shock absorber is damaged, it will also cause the wheels to leave the ground when the vehicle bends, which is easy to roll or lose control.

So how do we judge whether the shock absorber is damaged? If the shock absorber shell is cold after driving on rough road, it proves that it is not working and damaged. Automobile shock absorber is a very important part. If it is found damaged, it must be repaired in time.
