What is a trunk strut?
Your vehicle's trunk strut is a component which is designed to prop your vehicle's trunk open. Trunk struts are durable apparatus that enhance the opening and closing of the car trunk, stopping it from closing unexpectedly. Your car's trunk strut is a mechanism which is key to your safety when you have the trunk open.
How long do trunk struts last?
On average, if your car has been “babied,” you can expect your shocks/struts to last about 10 years. If you have really used your car like a workhorse, 5 years is probably all you can expect. This means that for the average driver, 7 or 8 years is the maximum life expectancy of most shocks and struts.
