Is It Time For 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 3 Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 3, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your ActiveHybrid 3 bounces, leans to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 3 in for suspension and steering service. 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’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems 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 BMW ActiveHybrid 3’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your BMW ActiveHybrid 3

Your 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 3’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. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 3’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn BMW ActiveHybrid 3 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 3 suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2015 ActiveHybrid 3 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my ActiveHybrid 3's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my BMW ActiveHybrid 3? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When should I have my BMW ActiveHybrid 3 power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your ActiveHybrid 3 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow BMW service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my BMW ActiveHybrid 3 bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your BMW ActiveHybrid 3 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 ActiveHybrid 3 front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your ActiveHybrid 3 combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • How do I know if I have worn BMW ActiveHybrid 3 shocks? Worn ActiveHybrid 3 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.
