Keeping your vehicle from bouncing all over the road is the job of your Chevy Malibu shocks. Mounted along with your springs, your Malibu shocks are an important part of your vehicle’s suspension system that keep your ride comfortable and your handling safe. When you drive over a pothole or a bump in the road, your springs start bouncing to keep your auto body from being damaged by the impact.

Your shocks then serve to dampen this up-and-down movement, which is known as spring oscillation. Why not just let your springs keep bouncing until they stop? Well, when your springs are moving, they gather momentum and can keep the oscillation going for quite a while.

Without your Chevy Malibu shocks to stop them, all that bouncing could cause your tires to lose contact with the pavement. At that point, if you were to make a sharp turn or a sudden stop, you could lose control of your vehicle. When your Malibu shocks are worn or relaxed, this is what happens with your springs. Many people think there is no reason to replace worn shocks, since they are just part of the entire suspension system, but actually they are quite an important component that should not be ignored.
