Calgary's roads take a seasonal beating from the freeze-thaw cycles of chinook events throughout winter, heavy road sand application, and the construction of new suburban developments that creates the rough road surfaces and temporary detour conditions that are hard on ball joints, bushings, and strut assemblies. A worn suspension affects ride quality, tire wear, and vehicle safety.

Replacing all four shocks or struts typically costs $800-$1,600 including parts and labor. Struts with integrated spring assemblies are more expensive than basic shock absorbers.
Shocks and struts generally last 80,000-150,000 km. Ball joints and tie rod ends vary, but should be inspected annually and replaced when play or looseness is detected.
If you hit a significant pothole and notice the steering wheel is off-center or the vehicle pulls, yes—get an alignment check immediately to prevent expensive uneven tire wear.
Struts are a structural component that integrates the coil spring and shock absorber into one unit. Shocks are standalone dampers mounted separately. Your vehicle uses one or the other depending on the suspension design.
