When To Get 2023 GMC Yukon XL Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2023 GMC Yukon XL, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your Yukon XL feels bouncy, leans to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2023 GMC Yukon XL in for steering and suspension repairs. 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your Yukon XL suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. 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

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2023 GMC Yukon XL suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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. But there's no set schedule for 2023 GMC Yukon XL shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. 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 smart move to get your Yukon XL’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2023 GMC Yukon XL Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Yukon XL's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • 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 the tires come into contact with the road in the way GMC intended.
  • When should I have my GMC Yukon XL power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Yukon XL is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per GMC's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my GMC Yukon XL to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Yukon XL 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 Yukon XL tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Yukon XL's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • What do worn GMC Yukon XL shocks feel like? 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.
