Is It Time For 2021 Acura ILX Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2021 Acura ILX, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your ILX bounces, pulls to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2021 Acura ILX, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If parts of your Acura ILX suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Acura ILX Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2021 Acura ILX’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your ILX’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Acura ILX shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2021 Acura ILX suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

2021 ILX Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Acura's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Acura ILX? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires connect with the road how Acura intended.
  • Does my Acura ILX power steering fluid need to be checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your ILX is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Acura's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Acura ILX bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your ILX to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my ILX tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your ILX when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Acura ILX need replacing? Worn ILX shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
