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 alert you to the need for 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 bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my GMC Sierra 2500 HD?

Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires connect with the road how GMC intended.

Does my GMC Sierra 2500 HD power steering fluid need to be checked?

Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Sierra 2500 HD’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per GMC's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.

Why is my GMC Sierra 2500 HD bouncing so much?

Excessive bouncing in your GMC Sierra 2500 HD might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.

Why does my Sierra 2500 HD front end dip forward when I brake?

When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.

How do I know if I have worn GMC Sierra 2500 HD shocks?

If your Sierra 2500 HD shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your Sierra 2500 HD might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.

When To Get 2024 GMC Sierra 2500 HD Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2024 GMC Sierra 2500 HD, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your Sierra 2500 HD feels bouncy, drifts 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 2024 GMC Sierra 2500 HD in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue 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 parts of your GMC Sierra 2500 HD suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

GMC Sierra 2500 HD Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2024 GMC Sierra 2500 HD’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out.

But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2024 GMC Sierra 2500 HD’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs 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 checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.
