What are symptoms of failed air shock absorbers?
12-29,2025
Among the most common and typical failures of air shock absorbers are excessive drop in vehicle height, reporting of faults, aged rubber air spring, and air leakage.
How to determine if an air shock absorber has failed?
After the vehicle has been parked for more than 4-8 hours, there are noticeable differences in the height of four wheels and the body.
The vehicle body sinks excessively when driving on bumpy roads.
The suspension generates abnormal sounds when driving on uneven roads, such as "rumbling" or "clicking" sounds.
Causes of air shock absorber failures:
Airbag damage or rupture leads to air leakage.
The vehicle height sensor is damaged.
The air compressor fails and is unable to provide sufficient compressed air.
Issues with the control unit, air pipelines, or distribution valve.
To address most common failures of air shock absorbers such as air leakage, meter failure, abnormal vehicle height, or abnormal sounds, vika has introduced air shock absorber assembly.

1. It is designed with the same size as original samples, and provides general performance comparable to OE products;
2. Solenoid valves from OE-supporting factories are used to guarantee stable and reliable performances;
3. Imported shock absorber oil and seals are used, thus ensuring more stable damping force and enhanced durability.
