Is It Time For 2017 Hyundai Elantra Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2017 Hyundai Elantra, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Elantra bounces, sways to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2017 Hyundai Elantra, bring it 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’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. 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 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2017 Hyundai Elantra’s suspension. 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 limit vibration and keep your Hyundai up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2017 Hyundai Elantra’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Hyundai Elantra shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2017 Hyundai Elantra’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2017 Elantra Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Hyundai's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Hyundai Elantra? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. 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? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Elantra’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 Elantra bouncing 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.
  • Why does my Elantra front end dip forward when I brake? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • How do I know if I have worn Hyundai Elantra shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Elantra feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Elantra travels over minor bumps.
