Does Your 2013 Hyundai Elantra Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2013 Hyundai Elantra, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Elantra feels bouncy, sways 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 2013 Hyundai Elantra in for steering and suspension services. 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, shock dampeners, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Elantra suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Hyundai Elantra’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.

Hyundai Elantra Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2013 Hyundai Elantra suspension system. 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2013 Hyundai Elantra shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Hyundai Elantra shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2013 Hyundai Elantra’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

2013 Elantra Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Elantra's steering and 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 Hyundai Elantra? 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 Hyundai intended.
  • Does my Hyundai Elantra 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 Elantra is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Hyundai service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Hyundai Elantra bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your Hyundai Elantra might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • What can cause the front end of my Elantra to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Elantra 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 can I tell if the shocks on my Hyundai Elantra are bad? Worn Elantra shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Elantra might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Elantra shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
