Drivers need to safely navigate hills, curves, congested roads etc. And each of these roads make a vehicle’s suspension system vital to safe driving and vehicle performance.
A suspension, by definition, “suspends” or supports the vehicle body over the wheels.
A modern suspension is made up of many parts that both carry the weight of the vehicle and help maintain firm contact between the tires and driving surface.
Drivers believe shocks and struts perform one basic function: enhancing comfort by absorbing road impacts. While important, this function is just one of several performed by these ride control components. In reality, they are primary contributors to safe, reliable vehicle operation by influencing steering, stopping and stability, contributing to longer life of other key suspension system components, and helping the driver remain alert, confident and in control.
When a vehicle is navigating a curve or turn, the resulting side-to-side load transfer causes the body to lean away from the steered direction. When the transferred load exceeds the grip, provided by the tires, the rear of the vehicle will tend to swing away from the turn. This is a classic case of a loss of stability.
The drivers need to be careful also about the water. At higher speeds a very thin layer of water breaks the contact patch between a vehicle’s tires and the road surface and creates a dangerous stiuation. Given the fact that shocks and struts help hold the tires against the driving surface, it should come as no surprise that they can help eliminate this potentially dangerous problem. Research shows that a front-wheel-drive car equipped with 50%-worn shocks, with new tires and driving at a constant speed on a 6mm film of water will experience aquaplaning at a 10% lower speed than on the same vehicle equipped with new shocks
