About the piece
Shock absorbers in Mazda 3 are key components of the suspension system that absorb shocks from the road to improve driving comfort and vehicle stability. They are mounted at each wheel and help reduce vehicle bounce over bumps or potholes, providing a more stable and smooth ride. Shock absorbers are long-lasting, with an estimated lifespan of 80,000 to 120,000 kilometers depending on usage and road conditions.
