Is It Time For 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 HD Classic Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 HD Classic, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Sierra 1500 HD Classic bounces, pulls 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 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 HD Classic in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your GMC Sierra 1500 HD Classic suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your GMC Sierra 1500 HD Classic

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 HD Classic’s suspension. 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 HD Classic shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn GMC Sierra 1500 HD Classic shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 HD Classic suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2007 Sierra 1500 HD Classic Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my GMC's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new 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 GMC Sierra 1500 HD Classic? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires connect with the road how GMC intended.
  • Does my GMC Sierra 1500 HD Classic power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Sierra 1500 HD Classic is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per GMC's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my GMC Sierra 1500 HD Classic bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Sierra 1500 HD Classic goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • What can cause the front end of my Sierra 1500 HD Classic to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Sierra 1500 HD Classic 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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my GMC Sierra 1500 HD Classic need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Sierra 1500 HD Classic feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Sierra 1500 HD Classic travels over minor bumps.
