- 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 support your vehicle and absorb shock, helping create a more stable ride when you drive over bumps or rough roads. The springs also help keep your vehicle at a proper and even height. Your Nissan likely has a total of four coil springs, one at each corner. They are typically found by the wheels.
Because your Coil Spring (Rear) helps support the weight of your vehicle, it's very durable and expected to last the lifetime of your car. Nonetheless, it can still be damaged. If you live in an area with salted roads, corrosion is a huge concern and can lead to faster deterioration of your springs. One of the most glaring signs you have an issue with your coil spring is your car sagging in one corner. You may also notice your drives becoming bumpier and shakier than normal.
Unfortunately, coil springs can't be repaired. If your Coil Spring (Rear) fails, you will need to replace it, and quickly. Continuing to drive with a broken spring can lead to other vehicle issues, like uneven tire tread, a messed-up alignment, loss of control, or a punctured tire. Even if just one of your Coil Spring (Rear)s breaks, it's often advised you replace them both. This can help make sure your Nissan stays balanced and at the proper height.
You can replace your Nissan Coil Spring (Rear) at home with the right tools and knowledge, but it can be a challenging project. One of the simplest ways to replace your springs is by purchasing a replacement Coil Spring (Rear) online and stopping by the closest Nissan service center.
The suspension system is essential to the operation of your Nissan, and a broken Coil Spring (Rear) can put your entire vehicle in jeopardy. Shop genuine OEM parts to find a replacement made for your Nissan.
