Car Shock Absorbers: Your Truck’s Silent Guardian

“Our ancestors had a saying, ‘Longevity depends on the user,’ but for a truck to last, you also have to consider the ‘shock absorbers’!” A long-time truck driver in Cau Giay, Hanoi, said to me with a smile. Indeed, car shock absorbers are a small but extremely important part for the smoothness, safety, and lifespan of a truck.

What are Car Shock Absorbers?

Introduction

Car shock absorbers, also known as dampers, are a part of the vehicle’s suspension system. Their function is to absorb and dampen vibrations and shocks from the road surface impacting the vehicle. Simply put, shock absorbers are like loyal “gatekeepers,” helping your truck overcome any bumpy road smoothly and safely.

Function

• Reduce shaking and bouncing for the vehicle when traveling on bad roads, increasing comfort for the driver.
• Ensure the wheels are always in contact with the road surface, helping the vehicle operate more stably and safely, especially when cornering or braking suddenly.
• Extend the lifespan of other vehicle parts such as tires, chassis, suspension system, etc.
