Does Your 2007 Honda Element Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2007 Honda Element, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Element jolts, sways to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2007 Honda Element, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. 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 absorbers, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, 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 parts of your Honda Element 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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Honda Element

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2007 Honda Element’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2007 Honda Element’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Honda Element shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Element’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

2007 Element Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Honda's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my Honda Element 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 Honda Element power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Element’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Honda's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Honda Element to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Honda Element 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 Element tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Element 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 Honda Element shocks? Worn Element shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Element might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Element shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
