What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Honda's suspension?

Maintaining your tires 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 bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Honda Odyssey?

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 come into contact with the road in the way Honda intended.

Does my Honda Odyssey 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 Odyssey is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Honda's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.

Why is my Honda Odyssey bouncing excessively?

If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Odyssey to bounce more than usual.

Why does my Odyssey's nose dive down when I hit the brakes?

As you brake, the forward momentum of your Odyssey 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 Odyssey need replacing?

Worn Odyssey shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.

Is It Time For 2020 Honda Odyssey Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2020 Honda Odyssey, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your Odyssey feels bouncy, sways to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2020 Honda Odyssey 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, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your Odyssey suspension system needs repair, 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 Honda Odyssey’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Honda Odyssey Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2020 Honda Odyssey suspension system. 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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Odyssey’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Honda Odyssey shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Odyssey’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.
