Does Your 2017 GMC Sierra 2500 HD Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2017 GMC Sierra 2500 HD, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Sierra 2500 HD jolts, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2017 GMC Sierra 2500 HD in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Sierra 2500 HD steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

GMC Sierra 2500 HD Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2017 GMC Sierra 2500 HD suspension system. 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 components work together to limit vibration and keep your GMC up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Sierra 2500 HD’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn GMC Sierra 2500 HD shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Sierra 2500 HD’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.

2017 Sierra 2500 HD Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my GMC's suspension? Maintaining your tires 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.
  • Why should my GMC Sierra 2500 HD get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. 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 should I have my GMC Sierra 2500 HD power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Sierra 2500 HD is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per GMC's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my GMC Sierra 2500 HD 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 Sierra 2500 HD front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your Sierra 2500 HD 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 GMC Sierra 2500 HD shocks? Worn Sierra 2500 HD shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Sierra 2500 HD might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Sierra 2500 HD shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
