These basically connect your strut assembly – that’s the shock absorber and spring combined – to the vehicle’s chassis, the main frame of the car. They’re a cushion, really. They have rubber or sometimes a combination of rubber and other materials in them, and they absorb vibrations and noise coming up from the road and suspension movement. They also allow for some degree of swivel or rotation as you steer and the suspension goes up and down. Think of it like this: your strut does all the heavy lifting controlling the wheel’s movement, but the mount is what keeps it properly positioned and isolates you from a lot of the harshness. It’s a critical piece in the whole suspension system. Without it, you’d feel every bump and imperfection in the road, and the strut wouldn't be secured correctly. It's what keeps everything aligned and working as it should. It acts like a shield between the road and the cabin of your car, preventing vibrations from traveling upwards. If these wear out, you’ll notice if you start hearing clunking sounds, especially when going over bumps, or maybe a rattling noise when idling. You might feel more vibration in the steering wheel or the ride just generally feeling rougher. Worn mounts can also cause uneven tire wear since the alignment isn’t stable. Ignoring it can eventually lead to damage to other suspension components like the strut itself, or even affect your steering. A bad strut mount puts extra stress on the whole system. Luckily, they aren't super complicated to replace. We, or a good mechanic, can get you sorted out pretty easily.
