When To Get 2019 Honda HR-V Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2019 Honda HR-V, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your HR-V jolts, pulls 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 2019 Honda HR-V in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

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 absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue 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 your Honda HR-V’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.

Honda HR-V Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2019 Honda HR-V’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Struts support the structure of the suspension and 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 2019 Honda HR-V shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Honda HR-V shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your HR-V’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2019 HR-V 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 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.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Honda HR-V? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. 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.
  • Does my Honda HR-V power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your HR-V’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Honda service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Honda HR-V bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your HR-V to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my HR-V's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your HR-V combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Honda HR-V need replacing? Worn HR-V shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your HR-V might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your HR-V shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
