ATTENTION: FORD EXPLORER OWNERS

"Did You Know You Should Replace Your Struts Every 50,000 Miles?..."

Safety experts recommend most struts need to be replaced between 40,000 - 50,000 miles. But, depending on what kind of driving you do, they can wear out sooner. Bumpy roads or over-enthusiastic driving in your Ford Explorer can accelerate how fast this happens.

You want to be safe when your out on the road and you want to be comfortable too, so it's really important to inspect your shock absorbers once a year or every 12,000 miles. Worn struts are not only uncomfortable, but can also be dangerous.

"Struts Really Are The Heart of Your Suspension..."

Believe it or not, the struts are a vital component of your suspensions system. The most noticeable advantage of a strut is that they work hand in hand with the springs to "absorb" many of the road bumps and in return you get a smoother ride. Without properly working struts your Explorer would be bouncing around on the springs.

You want control while driving your Explorer, so functioning struts are not just something you want, you need them for your Ford Explorer.

When you're driving, your tires only make contact with the road on a pretty small part of tire. If you're struts aren't working correctly, then the tires on your Explorer are really just bouncing all over the place. That means your tires spend more time in the air than on the road.

"Bouncing When Driving..."

If your Explorer is bouncing down the road while you're trying to drive, then chances are you've got worn struts.

Another important feature of struts is that they make steering and braking work properly. If the struts on your Explorer are worn, then your brakes and steering aren't working correctly. That's pretty dangerous.

Another sign that you're struts are ready for retirement, is cupped wear on your tires. If your struts need replaced, they can wear out tires in cupped strips because your tires are spending most of the time in the air and not on the road.

Tires bouncing all over the road with a Explorer on top of them is not a good game plan if you want the best road handling and a safe, comfortable ride or if you'd like to keep your tires for a while longer!

"How Come My Explorer Struts Wore Out?..."

Struts have valves and seals inside of them, and over time and depending on the the roads you drive and how you the drive, your struts take it all. They just take a beating with all the bouncing, and sooner or later, just stop working.

"I Need New Struts!..."
