Please help me. I have been having front end issues with my car since I bought it. Anytime I go over railroad tracks or manholes the front end slams like I have bad suspension. I took it to the mechanics and they said everything was good. But I have reason to believe otherwise. Also my front suspension sits higher than my rear. And I have been going through tires like crazy. Any and all help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

 

how many miles on the car? have suspension components every been replaced?

Im guessing your struts are done.

 

with a 13+ year old car...it's safe to assume you need a new suspension

 

Nope I haven't messed with suspension since I've gotten it. It's got 170k miles. You must be right. I had a feeling that was it. But reassurance was necessary. Thanks.

 

Slams usually indicates a failed strut.
