Three Maintenance Tips to Lengthen the Life of Your Nissan Titan Shock Absorber and Strut Assembly

Your Nissan Titan is a rugged truck that would surely do well on an off-road track. But did you know that without its shock absorber and strut assembly, you won't be able to put its heavy-duty performance to use? If you want to enjoy continuous ride comfort, give your Nissan Titan shock absorber and strut assembly the care that it deserves. Check out the following maintenance tips:

  • Routinely inspect it to see if it's in good working condition.

Keeping tabs on the condition of your shock absorber and strut assembly is the best way to prevent problems from occurring— or at least keep them from getting worse. It's a good maintenance practice to conduct a thorough inspection on your shocks and struts every 25,000 miles. Start by jacking up your vehicle, this will give you a better view of the assembly. Check its surface for any tell-tale signs of oil leakage. You should also look at its bushing and coils to make sure that they're not worn-out yet. This is a pretty simple task, the few minutes of your time dedicated to doing this will surely be worth it in the long run.

  • Make sure all of its components are functioning properly.

Your shock absorber and strut assembly is made up of different components. If one of those components fail, the entire assembly will eventually be ineffective too. This is why you should make sure that all the components necessary for making your shocks and struts work are in excellent condition as well. The most common problems you're likely to encounter with your shock absorber and strut assembly are worn-down bushings, bearings, and coils. If you find any of these on the assembly, make sure that you replace them as soon as you can.

  • Drive with more care.

The shock absorber and strut assembly of your truck is not indestructible. If you constantly subject it to a careless way of driving, it's bound to wear out and get damaged long before the end of its service life. If you want to reap benefits out of your shocks and struts for a long time, then drive with a little more care the next time around. Slow down every time you drive over potholes and speed bumps. You should also avoid overloading your vehicle to lessen the strain on your shocks and struts.

Have you ever driven over a deep rut on the road and felt like the jolt from it would send your wits flying right out of your body? That jarring bounce you experienced can even be worse without your Nissan Titan shock absorber and strut assembly. It's a good thing that this component of your suspension system is there to keep your ride smooth by dampening the vibrations and motions that your truck makes while you drive.

A damaged shock absorber and strut assembly will surely make your ride bumpy. Additionally, it may also put your safety at risk. In order to fix issues before they get worse, you need to know what to look out for. Here are some of the common signs of a failing shock absorber and strut assembly:

Rattling noise

Your suspension system shouldn't be making any type of noise, always keep that in mind. So if you notice rattling sounds coming from it, get ready to do a little diagnosing to figure out the cause of your problem. Lift your car up and check if the shock absorber and strut assembly is corroded or if there's a component that came loose. Loosely-fitted connections are usually the culprit behind this problem. You can fix this by securely tightening up the components or replacing those that are worn-out beyond repair.

Excessive bounce and sway

It's the job of your shocks and struts to lessen the motions of your truck, so why is it still bouncing and swaying excessively? It's highly probable that your shock absorber and strut assembly has succumbed to premature wear and tear. To test this problem out, perform a bounce test on your truck. Apply downward pressure on the hood using your hands and check if it bounces up and down for a few times after you release it. If it does, then you probably have worn-out shocks and struts. Replacement is better recommended for cases like this.

Scalloped tires

When your shocks and struts fail, it will cause your truck to bounce more than usual. This will have a negative effect on your tires sooner or later. If you see scallops or any form of irregular tread wear on your tires, check the shock absorber and strut assembly as soon as you can. You'll probably need to replace it as it's surely broken and useless. Replace your scalloped tires too.
