Is It Time For 2007 Honda Fit Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2007 Honda Fit, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Fit bounces, sways to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2007 Honda Fit in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, 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 go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Fit steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Honda Fit Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2007 Honda Fit’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. But there's no set schedule for 2007 Honda Fit shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Honda Fit shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2007 Honda Fit’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

Questions About 2007 Honda Fit Steering & Suspension

  • 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 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Honda Fit? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires connect with the road how Honda intended.
  • When should I have my Honda Fit power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Fit’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Honda service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Honda Fit to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Honda Fit 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 Fit 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 do I know if I have worn Honda Fit shocks? Worn Fit shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Fit might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Fit shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
