Does Your 2018 Hyundai Elantra GT Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2018 Hyundai Elantra GT, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Elantra GT bounces, leans 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 2018 Hyundai Elantra GT in for suspension and steering service. 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, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Hyundai Elantra GT suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Hyundai Elantra GT Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2018 Hyundai Elantra GT’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 2018 Hyundai Elantra GT shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Hyundai Elantra GT shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2018 Hyundai Elantra GT suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

2018 Elantra GT Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Elantra GT's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated 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 Elantra GT get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big 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 Elantra GT power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll follow Hyundai service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Hyundai Elantra GT bounce so much? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • What can cause the front end of my Elantra GT to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Elantra GT'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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Hyundai Elantra GT need replacing? Worn Elantra GT shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Elantra GT might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Elantra GT shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
