Does Your 2018 Cadillac CT6 Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2018 Cadillac CT6, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your CT6 bounces, drifts 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 2018 Cadillac CT6, 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your CT6 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.

Cadillac CT6 Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2018 Cadillac CT6’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. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your CT6’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Cadillac CT6 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your CT6’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

2018 CT6 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Cadillac's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, 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 Cadillac CT6? 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 come into contact with the road in the way Cadillac intended.
  • Does my Cadillac CT6 power steering fluid need to be checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your CT6’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Cadillac's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Cadillac CT6 bouncing excessively? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your CT6 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 CT6 front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your CT6 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 can I tell if the shocks on my Cadillac CT6 are bad? If your CT6 shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your CT6 might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
