Is It Time For 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2014 Chevrolet Cruze, 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 Cruze 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 2014 Chevrolet Cruze in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Cruze 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 Chevrolet Cruze suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, 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 Chevrolet Cruze

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2014 Chevrolet Cruze’s suspension. 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 reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 2014 Chevrolet Cruze 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 Chevrolet Cruze shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Cruze’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Chevrolet'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. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Why should my Chevrolet Cruze get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Chevrolet intended.
  • When should I have my Chevrolet Cruze power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Cruze is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Chevrolet service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Chevrolet Cruze bounce so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Cruze to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Cruze front end dip forward when I brake? 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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Chevrolet Cruze need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Cruze feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Cruze travels over minor bumps.
