When your vehicle is sagging, bouncing, or bumping along the road, it’s a safe bet that the problem lies somewhere in your suspension system. Your suspension system is comprised of several components that work together to keep your ride smooth and give you the handling and control you need for safe driving. The parts of your suspension system includes springs, control arms, and struts and/or shocks.
Some vehicles are equipped with just shocks, some have just struts, and some use both types of shock absorbers. Chevy Lumina shocks are tube-in-tube devices used to control the motion of your springs when you drive over road imperfections.
The bouncing motion is known as spring oscillation, and your Lumina shocks serve to dampen the bouncing of your springs as you drive. When your Chevy Lumina shocks are worn, or “relaxed,” you will likely notice a difference in the feel of your ride.
What you may not notice is that worn Lumina shocks have an adverse effect on your handling and control. When your springs keep bouncing up and down, your tires can lose contact with the pavement. Relaxed Chevy Lumina shocks can cause you to lose control of your vehicle when you make sudden stops or turn sharp corners. You may view your worn shocks as an unnecessary repair, but you should definitely replace them right away to prevent a possible accident.
