Does Your 2019 Buick LaCrosse Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2019 Buick LaCrosse, 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 LaCrosse jolts, sways 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 2019 Buick LaCrosse, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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

Buick LaCrosse Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2019 Buick LaCrosse’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2019 Buick LaCrosse’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Buick LaCrosse shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2019 Buick LaCrosse suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

Questions About 2019 Buick LaCrosse Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Buick's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Buick LaCrosse? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires connect with the road how Buick intended.
  • When should I have my Buick LaCrosse power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll top it off per Buick's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Buick LaCrosse bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your LaCrosse goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • Why does my LaCrosse's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your LaCrosse 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.
  • What do worn Buick LaCrosse shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your LaCrosse feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your LaCrosse travels over minor bumps.
