Chrysler Cirrus Strut Life

Discussion in 'Cirrus' started by Gregory N. Latiak, Jul 7, 2004.

  1. The ride on my 99 Cirrus has always been pretty decent -- it has roughly
    80,000km on it so far. Lately, I noticed that bumps in the road (not
    infrequent in southern Ontario) dont seem to damp as quickly. With previous
    cars, I would be into new shocks by now. Any comments on what I should
    expect for service life on the Macpherson struts? And how big a deal is it
    to change them?

    thanks

    x-no-archive: yes
    The shocks on my 97 stratus seem to doing fine at 102,000 mi. Changing them
    involves a spring compressor (which some places will rent) as well as an
    alignment. When I need them, I will pay someone else to do it.
