When To Get 2021 Cadillac XT4 Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2021 Cadillac XT4, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your XT4 bounces, 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 2021 Cadillac XT4 in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Cadillac XT4’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, 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 XT4

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2021 Cadillac XT4’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2021 Cadillac XT4’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Cadillac XT4 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2021 Cadillac XT4’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2021 XT4 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 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Cadillac XT4? 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 the tires connect with the road how Cadillac intended.
  • When does Cadillac XT4 power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your XT4’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Cadillac's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Cadillac XT4 bouncing excessively? Excessive bouncing in your Cadillac XT4 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 XT4 front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your XT4 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.
  • What do worn Cadillac XT4 shocks feel like? If your XT4 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 XT4 might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
