Drifting or pulling during turns- when your suspension system is failing you will feel the vehicle "drift" or "pull" when you are turning. 3. Dips or "nose dives" when stopping- When the shocks are worn out, you are likely to feel the vehicle body lurching forward and downward nose-first when you apply the brakes firmly. This can affect your ability to stop the car quickly (a bad suspension can increase stop time by up to 20 percent). 4. Uneven tire treads- Take a look at your tires. if you notice the tread is wearing down unevenly on your tires, or if you notice balding spots, this is often a symptom that the suspension isn't holding the car evenly, and therefore putting uneven amounts of pressure on the tires. 5. Damaged, "oily" shocks- If shocks or struts look greasy or oily, they could be leaking fluid; therefore they aren't working properly. 6. The "bounce test"- With the car in "park", press down on the front of the vehicle with all your weight, "bounce" it a few times, then release. Repeat at the rear of the vehicle. If the car continues to rock or bounce more than 2-3 times after you release it, the suspension is wearing out.
