High-Performance Monroe 🔧 5779 OESpectrum Shock Absorber Review

when they were installed on my cobalt, the passenger side died in less than a month! DO NOT BUY THESE WOOD PARTS! The thieves.

Took about a year and a half but now my rear tires are hollow and I need to replace them too. Hopefully if you replace them with AC Delco they will outlive the car.

Bought this product on 09/19/2017 and one of the two shock absorbers was already leaking. I'm the only rider and this pair of shocks has never been tested on a single small pothole. Very disappointing. Second chance. I just bought two Monroe 32296 Monroe Matic Plus shock absorbers for my other car. If they also fail prematurely, I will definitely never buy this brand again.

Some reviews on this item say they are not stiff enough and are too soft. If your driving style is energetic, then maybe you are. But I love a good ride and my driving style is not aggressive. If I wanted a car that I could throw around the corner, I wouldn't buy my HHR. The included shock absorbers do their job well and are reasonably priced. They arrived on time and in good condition, so I really couldn't ask for more.

I bought a pair of these shocks to replace the OEM shocks on my 2009 HHR. Within a year of installing the shocks were worse than the OEMs I replaced. Totally dissatisfied with this product. Replaced those crappy shocks with an ACDelco Premium 540-442 mono tube rear shock (used on the HHR SS model). The damper fits, but now it rides without bouncing anywhere. Much better dampers than those Monroe dampers.

The quality of the part is definitely inferior to the original damper in the painting. The hits I received had areas of bare metal that began to rust right out of the box. This is disappointing as Tenneco, now called the DR1V, is the original manufacturer of the three largest American automakers, as well as the Monroe shock absorber. It is so sad to see quality control not being followed and leaving the question as to what is the internal condition of the shock absorber. I gave 3 stars because…

Monroe OESectrum Rear Shock Whatever you do, DO NOT waste your money on this CHARACTER! I used to buy and install Monroe shocks but WOW they are such junk it should be against the law to sell them! I installed them today got in the car and as soon as I got in it sounded like a dog squeak, I'm not kidding I drive too, sounds like chipmunks arguing under the car what a time - and waste of money, unfortunately I'm stuck with this junk for at least a week before I can go to the auto parts store and

Purchased in January 2021 and both Monroe 5779 shocks have been leaking for a month in February 2021! I had both A-pillars and an anti-roll bar; both rear shock absorbers (5779) are installed; 4- new tires fitted and balanced; and finished parallel collapse of 4 wheels. Now a month later both Monroe 5779 tearing shock absorbers are leaking! $1200 and rear tire wear, car traction and now a loud rear impact. I rechecked the tires and did 3 wheel alignments which only made matters worse and was…
