You can tell if struts are going out by observing several signs, such as a bouncy or unstable ride, excessive body roll during turns, or uneven tire wear. Additionally, if you notice increased braking distance or a tendency for the vehicle to nose dive when stopping, these may indicate strut issues. Listening for clunking noises when driving over bumps can also be a warning sign that your struts need attention. Regular inspections and pay attention to how your vehicle handles can help catch these issues early.
