When To Get 2013 Cadillac SRX Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2013 Cadillac SRX, 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 SRX jolts, leans to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2013 Cadillac SRX in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your SRX 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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Cadillac SRX

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2013 Cadillac SRX suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Cadillac up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your SRX’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Cadillac SRX shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2013 Cadillac SRX’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2013 SRX Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Cadillac's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your 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 SRX? 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 the tires connect with the road how Cadillac intended.
  • When does Cadillac SRX 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 SRX is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Cadillac service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Cadillac SRX bouncing excessively? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your SRX 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 SRX'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 SRX are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your SRX feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your SRX travels over minor bumps.
