When To Get 2019 Honda Insight Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2019 Honda Insight, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Insight jolts, drifts to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2019 Honda Insight in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If your Insight steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Honda Insight Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2019 Honda Insight’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. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 2019 Honda Insight 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 Honda Insight shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2019 Honda Insight suspension 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 2019 Honda Insight Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Insight's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for 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.
  • Why should my Honda Insight 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. 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.
  • When should I have my Honda Insight power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Insight is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Honda service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Honda Insight bouncing excessively? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my Insight's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Insight'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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Honda Insight are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Insight feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Insight travels over minor bumps.
