Rear Right Shocked Locked! 2021 SX w/Towing Package

[rsmatti87]

Started around 19K, Telly is totally stock (no accidents) and just had it replaced under warrently at 21k. I started noticing increased rear harshness and rough ride. Head toss was dramatic and the vehicle was producing "diagnol pitch" behavior during medium to large events on the road. Dealer was great to work with (Shout out to the Service manager Mike) I had the bad shock in my hand at the dealer and it was incompressable at vehicle orientation and upside down, no leakage, and no visible signs of issue. Anyone run into this?

Now I am wondering the ride on my Telluride. Have noticed I feel some harsh bumps on the road. Tires are inflated to the correct psi and I am on 20 inch wheels / stock tires. Not sure if that makes a difference. Car has about 35,000 miles. How long is the suspension or shocks good till?

Would vary based on vehicles and usage but ultimately covered within any OE's warranty. Ride does degrade over time especially as tires get older. You would need access to a shock dyno to really tell if forces are within tolerances. Droping tire pressures helps also.
