A strut dampens spring motion and helps keep the tire in contact with the road. Signs that a strut may need replacing include excessive bouncing after bumps, nose-dive under braking, fluid seeping from the strut body, or uneven tire wear. These symptoms can have other causes, so have the suspension inspected before replacing parts. Replacing struts in pairs across the same axle is commonly recommended for balanced handling.
