- Part of suspension system
- Helps support vehicle, keep it a level height, and absorb road shock
- Replace when damaged or collapsed
The Coil Spring (Rear) is an essential part of your Nissan's suspension system. Coil springs absorb shock and support your Nissan, helping create a more pleasant ride when you drive over bumps or uneven roads. The springs also help keep your vehicle at a proper and even height. Your Nissan likely has a coil spring at each corner, giving you four in total. They are usually found by the wheels.
Because your Coil Spring (Rear) helps support the weight of your vehicle, it's extremely durable and expected to last the lifetime of your car. Nonetheless, it can still be damaged. If you live or often drive in an area with salted roads, corrosion is a big concern and can lead to faster deterioration of your coil springs. One of the most glaring signs you have a coil spring issue is your Nissan sagging in one corner. You might also notice your drives becoming bumpier and shakier than usual.
Unfortunately, coil springs can't be fixed. If your Coil Spring (Rear) fails, it will need to be replaced, and right away. Continuing to drive with a broken spring can cause other vehicle issues, like loss of control, a punctured tire, uneven tire tread, and a messed-up alignment. Even when only one of your Coil Spring (Rear)s breaks, it's usually advised you replace them in pairs. This can help make sure your car remains balanced and at the correct height.
It's possible to replace your Nissan Coil Spring (Rear) at home with the necessary tools and knowledge, but it can be difficult. If you don't have extensive automotive experience, you should consider purchasing a replacement Coil Spring (Rear) online and taking your vehicle to the closest Nissan service center.
The suspension system is essential to your Nissan's operation, and a failing Coil Spring (Rear) can compromise your entire vehicle. Shop genuine OEM parts to find a replacement made for your Nissan.
