When To Get 2019 Cadillac CTS Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2019 Cadillac CTS, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your CTS jolts, leans to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2019 Cadillac CTS, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your CTS suspension system needs repair, 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 CTS steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Cadillac CTS Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2019 Cadillac CTS suspension system. 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 components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your CTS’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Cadillac CTS shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2019 Cadillac CTS’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

2019 CTS Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my CTS's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need 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 Cadillac CTS? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my Cadillac CTS 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 CTS’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Cadillac service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Cadillac CTS bouncing excessively? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my CTS's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your CTS when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Cadillac CTS need replacing? If your CTS 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 CTS might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
