Shock absorbers typically last between 80,000 and 160,000 kilometers (50,000 to 100,000 miles), depending on road conditions, driving habits, and the quality of the shocks. In areas with rough roads or for drivers who frequently haul heavy loads or tow, shocks may wear out more quickly. If you frequently drive on smooth highways, your shocks may last closer to the higher end of the spectrum. It's also important to maintain your vehicle's suspension system properly; routine inspections and timely replacements of worn-out shocks can help ensure optimal performance and longevity. If you notice a change in ride quality, handling, or tire wear, it may be time to check or replace your shocks sooner.
