Monroe Shocktober Consumer Promotion Returns For Savings On Ride Control Purchases

Tenneco’s Monroe Shocks and Struts brand – celebrating a century of service – is offering Visa Prepaid Card rewards to consumers who help enhance their vehicles’ steering, stopping and stability this fall by purchasing Monroe or Rancho products.

The Monroe “Shocktober” promotion enables consumers to get four qualifying Monroe or Rancho shocks or struts for the price of three on purchases made before Oct. 31.

“As we enter fall and think ahead to the challenges of winter driving, it’s imperative to have your ride control components inspected by your vehicle service provider,” said Andrew DeSmidt, promotions manager, Tenneco. “Shocktober is a fun promotion that reminds consumers of the impacts of worn ride control components on driving. It’s a great time to save on premium products that can help restore your vehicle’s ride performance.”

Consumers are eligible to earn a Visa Prepaid Card when they select qualifying combinations and quantities of the following products: Monroe OESpectrum, Sensa-Trac and Reflex shocks, struts and cartridges; Max-Air and Gas-Magnum shocks; Monroe Load Adjusting shocks; Monroe Quick-Strut replacement assemblies; and Rancho RS5000, RS5000X, RS7000MT and RS9000XL series shocks. Consumers who qualify for the rebate will receive by mail a Visa Prepaid Card equal to the lowest priced unit, up to the current suggested list price.
