When To Get 2023 GMC Sierra 3500 HD Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2023 GMC Sierra 3500 HD, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Sierra 3500 HD bounces, 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 2023 GMC Sierra 3500 HD in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If parts of your GMC Sierra 3500 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 3500 HD Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2023 GMC Sierra 3500 HD’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 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 Sierra 3500 HD’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your GMC Sierra 3500 HD shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2023 GMC Sierra 3500 HD suspension 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.

2023 Sierra 3500 HD Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my GMC's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why should my GMC Sierra 3500 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. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does GMC Sierra 3500 HD power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Sierra 3500 HD’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow GMC service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my GMC Sierra 3500 HD bouncing so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Sierra 3500 HD 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.
  • Why does my Sierra 3500 HD tilt forward when I hit the brakes? 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 can I tell if the shocks on my GMC Sierra 3500 HD are bad? Worn Sierra 3500 HD shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Sierra 3500 HD might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Sierra 3500 HD shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
