This May Shock You:


How do you know if you need new shocks or struts?  Here at Buehler Automotive & Transmission we believe that informed customers are our best allies.  When driving you will begin to notice deterioration in the handling of your vehicle as your shocks and struts begin to fail. Unchecked, this can lead to higher repair costs, potentially damaging your exhaust system, transmission or engine oil pans, radiator mounts or other undercar components due to bottoming out of the suspension.  

You will begin to notice:
  • Roll or sway on turns
  • Front end dives when braking
  • Rear end squats when accelerating
  • Excessive bouncing or sideways slides on rough roads
  • Your vehicle bottoming out or scrapes the roadway

Once you bring your car to Buehler Automotive & Transmission the first things that we look for are:
  • Leaks on shocks or strut housings
  • Dents or physical damage on the strut or shock body
  • Worn or missing rubber mounting bushings
  • Abnormal tire wear
  • Damaged compression bumpers
  • Damaged protective dust boots

Loss of control of any vehicle may endanger our lives and others on the road.  If you have any questions or are concerned about your car, feel free to call us today at (519) 846-9221 to book an appointment or stop in at the shop, located at the lights in Alma.  We will carefully examine your car and give you the options you need to repair the situation.
