Common signs include clunking or knocking noises over bumps, especially when turning; vibration felt through the steering wheel; and uneven tire wear. The vehicle may also feel less stable during cornering.
Ensure all mounting bolts are tightened to the correct torque specifications. Verify the correct orientation of the mount and that no components were left out during assembly.
Confirm the bearing is correctly seated and lubricated if applicable. Check that the steering column is properly aligned with the strut mount.
While this part can affect alignment, a persistent pull may indicate an issue with the other side's suspension, tire pressure, or the need for a professional wheel alignment after installation.

Care: Once installed, this part requires no specific maintenance. However, regular checks of your suspension system during routine vehicle maintenance are advised. Any signs of unusual noises, vibration, or handling changes should be investigated by a professional.
