Does Your 2006 Chevrolet Suburban 2500 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2006 Chevrolet Suburban 2500, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Suburban 2500 feels bouncy, pulls to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2006 Chevrolet Suburban 2500, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

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, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Suburban 2500 suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Suburban 2500 steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Chevrolet Suburban 2500 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 2006 Chevrolet Suburban 2500’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. 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 Chevrolet up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2006 Chevrolet Suburban 2500’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Chevrolet Suburban 2500 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2006 Chevrolet Suburban 2500 suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

Questions About 2006 Chevrolet Suburban 2500 Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Suburban 2500's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, 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.
  • Why should my Chevrolet Suburban 2500 get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. 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 Chevrolet intended.
  • When should I have my Chevrolet Suburban 2500 power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Suburban 2500’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Chevrolet's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Chevrolet Suburban 2500 bouncing excessively? 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 Suburban 2500 front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your Suburban 2500 when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • How do I know if I have worn Chevrolet Suburban 2500 shocks? Worn Suburban 2500 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Suburban 2500 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Suburban 2500 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
