When To Get 2009 Hyundai Accent Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2009 Hyundai Accent, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Accent bounces, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2009 Hyundai Accent in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Accent suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Accent 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.

Hyundai Accent Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2009 Hyundai Accent’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Hyundai up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Accent’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Hyundai Accent shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2009 Hyundai Accent’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

2009 Accent Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Hyundai's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my Hyundai Accent 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 Hyundai Accent power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Accent’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Hyundai service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Hyundai Accent bouncing so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Accent goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • Why does my Accent tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Accent 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 Hyundai Accent shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Accent feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Accent travels over minor bumps.
