Is It Time For 2022 GMC Yukon XL Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2022 GMC Yukon XL, 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 Yukon XL jolts, drifts 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 2022 GMC Yukon XL in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your GMC Yukon XL’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

GMC Yukon XL Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2022 GMC Yukon XL’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2022 GMC Yukon XL’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn GMC Yukon XL shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2022 GMC Yukon XL’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2022 GMC Yukon XL Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Yukon XL's steering and 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my GMC Yukon XL? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my GMC Yukon XL power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Yukon XL is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow GMC service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my GMC Yukon XL to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your GMC Yukon XL 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 Yukon XL tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Yukon XL 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 Yukon XL need replacing? Worn Yukon XL shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Yukon XL might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Yukon XL shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
