When To Get 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 Classic Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 Classic, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Sierra 1500 Classic bounces, 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 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 Classic, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, 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 parts of your GMC Sierra 1500 Classic 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.

GMC Sierra 1500 Classic Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 Classic’s suspension. 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 components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 Classic shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn GMC Sierra 1500 Classic shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Sierra 1500 Classic’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.

2007 Sierra 1500 Classic Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Sierra 1500 Classic's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my GMC Sierra 1500 Classic 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. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way GMC intended.
  • When should I have my GMC Sierra 1500 Classic power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Sierra 1500 Classic is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per GMC's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my GMC Sierra 1500 Classic 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 Sierra 1500 Classic front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Sierra 1500 Classic'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 are the signs that the shocks on my GMC Sierra 1500 Classic need replacing? Worn Sierra 1500 Classic shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Sierra 1500 Classic might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Sierra 1500 Classic shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
