For some reason after my car sat for 2 weeks now the driver side wheel is stiff. it is causing the car to ride really funny when hitting bumps..

Any thoughts.

The strut might have seized.

Good luck.

Push down on your fender(kind of hard), the suspension should go down then back up, once. If it does not go down or keeps going up and down, then the shock is bad.

The same thing happened to mine after sitting on the lift all weekend. Replace front struts or it will chop the front tires .

Thanks for all the advice, mine was up on a lift for about 3 weeks. I figured it was the strut, but I wanted to get another optinion.
