What Causes the Thumping Noise When Driving on Uneven Roads?

[AddysonFitz]

Uneven road surfaces causing thumping noises in the vehicle may indicate a malfunction in the shock absorber or the shock absorber top mount. The connection points between shock absorbers and the vehicle body are equipped with buffer rubber mounts, which are rubber components. Over time, these rubber parts can age and harden, leading to abnormal noises when the car traverses bumpy roads. The solution is to replace the buffer rubber mounts. If the shock absorber itself is damaged, it will also produce abnormal noises when driving over uneven surfaces, requiring replacement with a new shock absorber. As the core component of the vehicle's vibration filtration system, shock absorbers primarily absorb vibrations and impacts generated by uneven road surfaces during driving, ensuring a comfortable ride for passengers.
