During the first few years you had your 2011 Chevrolet Volt, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your Volt feels bouncy, sways 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 2011 Chevrolet Volt in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.
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, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Volt suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Chevrolet Volt suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.
Your 2011 Chevrolet Volt’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. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Volt’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Chevrolet Volt shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2011 Chevrolet Volt suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.
