Honda Accord Shocks and Struts

Front-wheel drive cars such as the Honda Accord use a strut as part of the front suspension system. Attaching the wheel to the chassis, the strut is responsible for taking the brunt of the impact that the wheel transmits from the road. Not only will a bad strut cause an uncomfortable ride, but it might introduce instability at highway speeds, which is extremely dangerous. If you need new replacement struts for your Honda Accord, you can find them at AutoZone.

When to Replace Your Shocks and Struts

Bad struts need to be replaced every 50,000 to 80,000 miles, though this varies greatly on how aggressive you drive and the road conditions in your area. Visually inspect the struts for any corrosion or leaks but bear in mind that mounts and bushings can also corrode or wear out, and can't be detected with a simple visual inspection.

The strut consists of a damping unit housed within a rigid strut housing. Usually, the bottom end of the strut is attached to the lower control arm through the steering knuckle and the lower ball joint. Since struts affect the way your car drives and turns, it's never a good idea to knowingly drive with bad struts without replacing them. Top options include struts from KYB, Sensen, and Duralast.
