Shock

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My car started making popping noises when I go right and
it makes them when I go over a bump. I was wondering if it
will be safe to drive home tomorrow and get them fixed?

It might be the struts but it's more likely the CV joints making those noises. I wouldn't put off repairs, but you should be okay to drive it to a shop. (CV joints are part of your front axles.) Google CV joint replacement for your make and model to get an idea what repairs involve and how much to expect to pay so you can deal with any shops better.

    Got a 95 Ford Contour 2.0 l4. When I first got it it was jerking at about 40- 45 mph. Almost like it didn't know what gear to be in. Didn't hear any whining until after my camping trip a month later....
