You’ll want to schedule service if you notice any of the following issues with your vehicle while driving:

• Excessive bouncing
• Loss of tire contact with the road
• Excessive or uneven tire wear
• A decrease in your vehicle’s handling or braking
• Vibration or noise
• Fluid leaks in your vehicle’s shocks
• Dents, holes or damage to any of your vehicle’s shock components
