For the past few months I kept hearing this metallic rattle whenever I went over those rough patches near the Business Bay crossing, but I just turned up the radio and told myself it was probably just a loose heat shield. Last week my wife mentioned the car felt like it was swaying more than usual on the highway, and that got me worried enough to actually do some research. I ended up on https://dubaimetromap.ae/early-suspension-warning-signs-dubai-drivers-ignore/ and pretty much every single warning sign matched what I’d been ignoring – the uneven tire wear, the knocking over speed bumps, the car taking an extra bounce after a dip. Took the car in yesterday and sure enough, both rear shocks were completely blown and one sway bar link was hanging on by a thread. Repair is gonna cost me nearly 2500 AED. Honestly I feel stupid because the signs were all there for months. Anyone else out there currently telling themselves «it’s probably nothing»? Get it checked before it becomes a bigger problem.
