When To Get 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Silverado 1500 jolts, leans to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

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, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your Silverado 1500 suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Silverado 1500 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 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Chevrolet Silverado 1500 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Silverado 1500’s 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.

Questions About 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Silverado 1500's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my Chevrolet Silverado 1500 get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Chevrolet intended.
  • When does Chevrolet Silverado 1500 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 Silverado 1500 is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Chevrolet's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Chevrolet Silverado 1500 to have a bouncy ride? 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 Silverado 1500's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Silverado 1500'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 do worn Chevrolet Silverado 1500 shocks feel like? Worn Silverado 1500 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Silverado 1500 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Silverado 1500 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
