Don't Rock and Roll!

We should point out that we aren't having a go at your musical preferences, but rather your shock absorbers. If you have worn shock absorbers on your car, not only will you be rocking and rolling around corners, but possibly reducing your stopping distance by as much as 2.6 metres which can be incredibly dangerous for everyone on the road.

Most people don't know that the primary role of shockers is to keep your tyres in constant contact with the road surface. The less road contact, the slower you stop, and in an emergency that can be deadly. That is why we are part of the Monroe Safety Specialist program, to help educate and keep motorists safe.

As a Monroe Safety Specialist we can offer customers the peace of mind that comes from knowing that your independent mechanical workshop is partnering with one of the biggest names in the business. Over the next few months as we move into wetter weather we will be focusing on safe driving and supporting our friends Monroe.

Our fully trained technicians can test all of your steering and suspension systems and advise you on the right shockers for your driving conditions and needs. So call us today and make sure the only rock and roll in your car is coming from the sound system!
