DIAGNOSIS CHART - STRUTS SEEM WEAK

Checks Action
Check the tire pressures. Adjust the tire pressures to the specifications on the tire placard.
Check the load conditions under which the vehicle is normally driven. Consult with the owner to confirm the owner's understanding of normal load conditions.
Check the compression and rebound effectiveness of the strut dampener. Quickly push down and then lift up on the corner of the bumper nearest the strut dampener being tested.
Compare the compression and rebound with those of a similar vehicle that has an acceptable ride quality.
Replace the strut dampener, if needed.
