When To Get 2007 Cadillac Escalade EXT Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2007 Cadillac Escalade EXT, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Escalade EXT jolts, drifts 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 2007 Cadillac Escalade EXT in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Escalade EXT 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 Escalade EXT 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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Cadillac Escalade EXT

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2007 Cadillac Escalade EXT suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Cadillac up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2007 Cadillac Escalade EXT shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Cadillac Escalade EXT shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2007 Cadillac Escalade EXT suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

2007 Escalade EXT Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Cadillac's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Cadillac Escalade EXT? 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 the tires connect with the road how Cadillac intended.
  • When does Cadillac Escalade EXT power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Escalade EXT’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Cadillac's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Cadillac Escalade EXT bouncing so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Escalade EXT 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 Escalade EXT's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Cadillac Escalade EXT are bad? If your Escalade EXT 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 Escalade EXT might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
