Rear Shock Absorber Ford Figo/Fiesta (Gas)

The “shock” is a suspension component that controls the up-and-down motion of a vehicle’s wheels. Though the devices provide some shock absorption, the job of absorbing shocks is handled mostly by the springs.

More accurately called dampers, “shocks” damp excessive motion, keeping the vehicle’s body from bouncing down the road. Cars with worn-out shock absorbers illustrate what the devices are meant to do, because they tend to bounce continuously. Worn-out shocks compromise a car’s roadholding and braking. The bounce test is a time-honored method of checking shock-absorber health, but mechanics might also spot oil leaking from the shock, which means the component is starting to fail and should be replaced. Uneven tire wear is another sign of shock failure.

Essentially, shock absorbers do two things. Apart from controlling the movement of springs and suspension, shock absorbers also keep your tyres in contact with the ground at all times. At rest or in motion, the bottom surface of your tyres is the only part of your vehicle in contact with the road. Any time that a tyre’s contact with the ground is broken or reduced, your ability to drive, steer and brake is severely compromised.

Despite popular belief, shock absorbers do not support the weight of a vehicle.

A damaged shock absorber will affect the comfort of your vehicle. It will also accelerate the wear of other parts such as tyres. Although you will still be able to drive your car, there will be noticeable issues with its stability, which can affect you and your passengers safety.
