Well thanks for the advise but NO the struts make a hollow knocking noices over bumps that will gradually get worse until it sounds as if your driving an old truck...the ride gets worse and generally very noisey...this will be the FORTH SET that has failed in this manner...I searched the web and it appears to be common.
