Does Your 2013 Buick Regal Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2013 Buick Regal, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Regal bounces, pulls to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2013 Buick Regal in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Regal suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Regal 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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Buick Regal

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2013 Buick Regal’s suspension. 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 2013 Buick Regal shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Buick Regal shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2013 Buick Regal 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.

2013 Regal Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Buick's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Buick Regal? 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does Buick Regal power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Regal’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Buick's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Buick Regal bouncing so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Regal 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 Regal front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Regal'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.
  • How do I know if I have worn Buick Regal shocks? Worn Regal shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Regal might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Regal shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
