What are the effects of a damaged rear shock absorber buffer sleeve on a car?

[VonGenevieve]

Damage to the rear shock absorber buffer sleeve of a car can have the following effects: 1. Abnormal noises while driving, where the vehicle's shock absorber produces unusual sounds during operation. 2. Increased noise, as the shock absorber transmits absorbed vibrations and impacts directly from the chassis to the passenger compartment. 3. Steering deviation, where the vehicle's steering may exhibit slight deviations, difficulty returning to center, and weak return force. Below is relevant information: 1. Function of the buffer sleeve: It comprehensively improves driving stability, enhances comfort, and increases driving pleasure; shortens braking distance, improving driving safety; protects the shock absorber and suspension system, extending the shock absorber's lifespan by 2-3 years; reduces body vibrations and absorbs suspension system noise. 2. Precautions: In fact, vehicles are equipped with shock absorber buffer sleeves during the original manufacturing process, and adding additional buffer sleeves afterward does not significantly improve the vehicle's vibration filtering effect, making it somewhat redundant. However, since adding shock absorber buffer sleeves does not harm the vehicle, this practice is not opposed.
