{"product_id":"front-strut-mount-1","title":"Front Strut Mount","description":"The Volkswagen Genuine Parts 133412345 is a front strut mount, also known as a top mount for the front strut, designed to fit select Volkswagen vehicles. This component is crucial for MacPherson suspension systems, as it secures the top of the strut to the chassis and serves as a pivot point for steering. Over time, the strut bearing can degrade, leading to a rougher feel and reduced steering performance, while cracked rubber can cause looseness and other issues. It is recommended to replace strut mounts whenever installing new strut assemblies to ensure optimal performance and longevity.\n\nThis specific strut mount is noted for its good quality and is manufactured in China. It is designed as a direct replacement for the original part. Symptoms of a failing strut mount can include clunking or knocking noises over bumps, excessive vibration through the steering wheel or chassis, poor steering response, uneven tire wear, and increased body roll or sway.\n\nThis part is confirmed to fit the Volkswagen Beetle and Beetle Cabrio models from 1973 to 1979. It is essential to verify fitment for specific engine and transmission configurations within these model years to ensure compatibility.","brand":"Volkswagen Genuine Parts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52664091574584,"sku":"133412345","price":59.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/687537288.jpg?v=1784333099","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/front-strut-mount-1","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
