What are shocks & struts?
Toyota's shocks and struts are designed to maximize the contact a tire has with road, especially on poor conditions. They provide a comfortable ride without sacrificing safety!
How long do shocks & struts last?
Over 120,000 kilometres or 7 years driven, your shocks & struts will have cycled over 112,500,000 times – reducing their ability to safely keep your tires in proper contact with the road. This creates an unsafe condition of longer stopping distances and poor vehicle control.
How is this corrected?
It's important to replace your worn-out shocks and struts from time to time, as it’s recommended by experts. This will restore your vehicle’s safety system back to how it should be: according to Toyota factory specifications.
Is it time to schedule your Shocks & Struts Replacement?
Having new shocks & struts installed by our Toyota Certified Technicians will maximize braking effectiveness, improve vehicle control, and provide safe, peace-of-mind driving for years to come.
