How Long Can Car Springs Generally Last?
1 Answers
Car springs generally last about two to three years. The car's suspension system consists of shock-absorbing springs and shock absorbers, with the shock-absorbing springs playing the primary role. The shock-absorbing springs convert the larger energy from the road into smaller energy, and the shock absorbers then transform this energy into multiple shock waves. Checking if the shock absorber is working: You can drive a certain distance on rough ground and feel the outer shell of the shock absorber with your hand. If the inside does not feel sufficiently warm, it indicates that the shock absorber is not providing resistance, meaning it is not working. Conversely, if it feels warm, the shock absorber is functioning. Checking if the shock absorber is faulty: Press down on the bumper with your hand. If the car rebounds several times, it indicates that the shock absorber is working normally. Conversely, if it does not rebound properly, the shock absorber may have a fault.
