When To Get 2010 Cadillac DTS Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2010 Cadillac DTS, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your DTS jolts, pulls to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2010 Cadillac DTS in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your DTS suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Cadillac DTS suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Cadillac DTS Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2010 Cadillac DTS’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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 getting your 2010 Cadillac DTS’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Cadillac DTS shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2010 Cadillac DTS suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.

2010 DTS Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my DTS's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Cadillac DTS? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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 Cadillac DTS power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your DTS’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 DTS bouncing excessively? Excessive bouncing in your Cadillac DTS might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • Why does my DTS tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your DTS'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.
  • What do worn Cadillac DTS shocks feel like? Worn DTS shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
