What happens when your shocks and struts are bad?
What happens when your shocks and struts are bad? If your shocks and struts are bad, when you hit the gas pedal, the momentum of the vehicle will be transferred to the rear end, which will cause the front end to rise slightly into the air and resemble a boat on the water. What causes the struts on a car to shimmy? Your struts probably are tired at this point, however shimmy can also be caused by worn out tie rod ends, ball joints, bent rims, and other causes. All of this should be evaluated by a good chassis shop....
