Is It Time For 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Stelvio jolts, leans to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Stelvio steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Alfa Romeo Stelvio Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Alfa Romeo Stelvio shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2018 Stelvio Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Alfa Romeo's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Alfa Romeo Stelvio? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Alfa Romeo intended.
  • When does Alfa Romeo Stelvio power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Stelvio’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Alfa Romeo's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Alfa Romeo Stelvio bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your Alfa Romeo Stelvio might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • Why does my Stelvio tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Stelvio's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • What do worn Alfa Romeo Stelvio shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Stelvio feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Stelvio travels over minor bumps.
