What is the performance of the broken strut mounts?

    When you find that your car makes a particularly loud noise when passing through potholes, you should pay attention. It may be that the shock absorber top strut mount is broken. The suspension part lacks the cushioning effect of the top strut mounts, and there is a direct collision between the metals, so a "crack" sound will be issued. The following teaches you how to judge the fault of the torque strut mount:

1. The tire noise becomes louder. In severe cases, the roar of tires can be heard.

2. The comfort becomes worse. When passing speed bumps or potholes, you can hear a "bang" sound, accompanied by a shock that is directly transmitted to the body, which is very stiff and uncomfortable.

3. Driving in a straight line deviates. The steering wheel maintains the same angle, but the vehicle cannot maintain a straight line and will always deviate automatically.

4. Turn the steering wheel in place to make a "squeak" sound. The top rubber loses its elasticity due to aging, and the sound occurs when it is squeezed.

    The function of the shock absorber is to suppress the shock of the spring and absorb the energy of the road impact when it rebounds after shock absorption. The spring plays the role of alleviating the impact, changing "one impact with large energy" into "multiple impact with small energy", while the shock absorber gradually reduces the "multiple impact with small energy". When the shock absorbers fail, the passenger experience is very bad. The impact of any uneven road surface is directly transmitted to the body of the passengers, and the deviation of the driving also seriously threatens the safety of the passengers. Therefore, it is necessary to choose a high-quality shock absorber strut mount. If the shock absorber is faulty, it must be timely repaired.
