Can bumpy o r broken roads in Pakistan damage the Oshan X7’s steering components over time?

I often drive on poorly maintained roads and speed breakers in my city. Could this wear out the steering rack, tie rods, o r suspension parts more quickly than normal? How can I prevent damage?

Yes, Pakistani road conditions broken roads, speed bumps, potholes accelerate wear on:

Tie rods and ball joints.

Steering rack and mounts.

EPS connectors o r wiring.

Constant jolting can cause components to loosen o r break down earlier than expected, leading to poor handling, noise, and alignment issues.

How to prevent this:

Drive slowly over speed breakers o r potholes.

Get a suspension check every 10,000–15,000 km.

Use high-quality shocks and bushings when replacing parts.
