The Four "Criteria" That cause a recomendation to replace or an Inspection failure in some cases.
1st Mileage, Most shops will recomend replacment at a set mileage. Our shop avoids this as most retail customers can not feel the diference and feel as if they have been ripped off.
2nd Oil leakage, If the component leaks oil it fails and should and may be required to be replaced
3rd Rust, if the body of the companent is rusted, it fails
4th Function testing. The body of the automobile is bounced by hand and once the bouncing is stoped the car should setle with out any further bounces. If it continues to move the Shockabsorber fails.
