This should not happen all the time. If it does, check the motor oil for water. If it's all foamy white, than you have a leaking head gasket.

QuestionHow can I tell if I need new front shocks?Community AnswerYou will see uneven tire wear and the car might bounce excessively. Sometime noise and squeaks may be heard, however that alone is not an indicator of bad shocks. Rubber parts tend to squeak, especially in moist and humid regions or when it rains.
