Does Your 2014 Cadillac XTS Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2014 Cadillac XTS, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your XTS jolts, pulls to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2014 Cadillac XTS in for steering and suspension repairs. 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your XTS suspension system needs repair, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If your Cadillac XTS’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 XTS

Your 2014 Cadillac XTS’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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 2014 Cadillac XTS shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Cadillac XTS shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your XTS’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2014 XTS Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my XTS's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new 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 XTS? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. 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 XTS 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 XTS’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Cadillac service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Cadillac XTS to have a bouncy ride? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your XTS to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my XTS front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your XTS'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 are the signs that the shocks on my Cadillac XTS need replacing? Worn XTS shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your XTS might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your XTS shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
