Help keep the rear of your SUV composed and controlled with the Monroe Restore 210340, a Monroe shock absorber designed for consistent performance, handling and control while filtering out noise, vibration and harshness. It is a direct-fit replacement for the rear suspension on the 2013-2018 Hyundai Santa Fe, 2013-2018 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport and 2014-2015 Kia Sorento. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-specific details.
Monroe's Restore line covers domestic and import passenger cars, light trucks and SUVs. This rear unit brings the following features:
- Nitrogen gas charge: Designed to reduce aeration and shock fade, which helps maintain tire-to-road contact for improved ride and handling.
- Banded piston: Helps reduce friction between the piston and the pressure tube. This makes the shock more responsive to changing road surfaces and supports smooth operation.
- Validated performance: Designed and validated for consistent performance.
- Engineering expertise: Engineered for quality you can count on.
As a suspension shock absorber, it dampens spring movement to help control bouncing of the body and wheels after a bump. Signs a rear shock may need replacing include excessive bouncing or float over bumps and the rear squatting or wallowing. Fluid leaking from the shock body and uneven tire wear are other possible signs. Have the suspension inspected to confirm the cause before replacing parts.
