When To Get 2016 Alfa Romeo 4C Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2016 Alfa Romeo 4C, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your 4C feels bouncy, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2016 Alfa Romeo 4C in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue 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 your 4C steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Alfa Romeo 4C

Your 2016 Alfa Romeo 4C’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Alfa Romeo up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2016 Alfa Romeo 4C shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Alfa Romeo 4C shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2016 Alfa Romeo 4C’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2016 4C Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my 4C's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Alfa Romeo 4C? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires connect with the road how Alfa Romeo intended.
  • Does my Alfa Romeo 4C power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your 4C is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Alfa Romeo's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Alfa Romeo 4C bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your 4C to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my 4C front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your 4C 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.
  • How do I know if I have worn Alfa Romeo 4C shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your 4C feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your 4C travels over minor bumps.
