Is It Time For 2005 Cadillac DeVille Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2005 Cadillac DeVille, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your DeVille feels bouncy, leans to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2005 Cadillac DeVille in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your DeVille 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 Cadillac DeVille suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Cadillac DeVille

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2005 Cadillac DeVille’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 2005 Cadillac DeVille shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Cadillac DeVille shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your DeVille’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2005 Cadillac DeVille Steering & Suspension

  • 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 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.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Cadillac DeVille? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major 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 DeVille power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your DeVille is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Cadillac's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Cadillac DeVille bounce so much? 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 DeVille's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your DeVille 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 DeVille need replacing? Worn DeVille shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your DeVille might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your DeVille shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
