Does Your 2010 Cadillac Escalade EXT Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2010 Cadillac Escalade EXT, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your Escalade EXT feels bouncy, sways 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 2010 Cadillac Escalade EXT, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. 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, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel hub 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 explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Escalade EXT steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Cadillac Escalade EXT Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2010 Cadillac Escalade EXT’s suspension. 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Escalade EXT’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Cadillac Escalade EXT shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2010 Cadillac Escalade EXT suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2010 Escalade EXT Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Escalade EXT's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my Cadillac Escalade EXT get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When should I have my Cadillac Escalade EXT power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Escalade EXT is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Cadillac's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Cadillac Escalade EXT 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 Escalade EXT tilt forward when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Escalade EXT 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 Escalade EXT are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Escalade EXT feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Escalade EXT travels over minor bumps.
