Creeping signs of wear: Defective shock absorbers impair ESP!

Broken vibration dampers on the car harbor additional dangers. The result is less comfort, which is associated with an increased risk of accidents. TÜV Süd therefore recommends having a professional inspection carried out regularly. Dilapidated shock absorbers impede the functioning of important safety systems in the vehicle. According to the expert opinion of TÜV Süd, it makes sense to carry out regular maintenance on the components, which can also be used as vibration be designated. Provided, of course, that it is not already part of the inspection scope. Electronic driving assistance systems such as ABS (anti-lock braking system), ASR (traction control) or ESP (electronic stability control) are adapted to a fully functional chassis according to TÜV. This ensures safe traction in all driving situations.

Defective shock absorbers affect ESP!

However, if there are defects in the dampers, this can have a major impact on the functioning of the electronic helpers. The heavier the load on the vehicle, the greater the risk of an accident, for example when a holiday trip is imminent. The TÜV also recommends a regular check-up because shock absorbers only lose their effectiveness gradually and often without the driver noticing. Advanced and gradual signs of wear not only have a negative effect on driving comfort, but also increase the car's tendency to corner. In addition, the TÜV warns that evasive maneuvers can lead to snaking and that the braking distance is also longer. As a result, the tires also wear out faster and unevenly.

Of course, that wasn't the end of it!
