Hi all just curious if I should be concerned when driving on a bit bumpy/uneven holes on roads.

The street I live on inst terrible but it definitely isn’t smooth and curious if I should stress over every bump / sewer my car goes over.

Thank you!

    No, in fact I always find it comical when people blatantly avoid the smallest bumps or potholes in their new car to “keep it in good shape”. Cars are designed with some seriously shitty roads in mind. In the VERY long term, yeah avoiding big bumps will make your suspension components last a little longer, but it’s nothing to consciously worry about.

      I mean - what the worst that can open over time? Suspension components go bad? Those can just be replaced right? Not something that would ruin a car forever? lol

        The worst that can happen is you spill your coffee hitting a bump. You are overthinking this.
