My car seems to be bottoming out like there is no shocks there to absorb the bump. There appears to be no leaks but there maybe and i just didn't notice it because I brought the car like this. I took it to the dealer for a general but brief inspection and they said the suspension APPEARS to be ok. I'm sure they did not do a computer diagnostic. The car has an air ride system but the frontsits a couple inches higher than the rear. Can you give me some tips or point me in the right direction to help me solve my problem?
