Does Your 2021 Chevrolet Traverse Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2021 Chevrolet Traverse, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Traverse jolts, drifts 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 2021 Chevrolet Traverse in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, 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 Traverse steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Chevrolet Traverse Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2021 Chevrolet Traverse’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 2021 Chevrolet Traverse’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 could all be indicators of worn Chevrolet Traverse shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2021 Chevrolet Traverse suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2021 Traverse Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Traverse's steering and 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Chevrolet Traverse? 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does Chevrolet Traverse power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Traverse is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Chevrolet's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Chevrolet Traverse bounce so much? 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 Traverse's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Traverse 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 can I tell if the shocks on my Chevrolet Traverse are bad? Worn Traverse shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Traverse might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Traverse shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
