Does Your 2012 Hyundai Equus Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2012 Hyundai Equus, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Equus jolts, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2012 Hyundai Equus, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Equus suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Equus steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Hyundai Equus Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2012 Hyundai Equus’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 components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2012 Hyundai Equus’s shocks and struts replaced 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 Hyundai Equus shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Equus’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2012 Equus Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Equus's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also let you know when it's time to replace your 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 Equus? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does Hyundai Equus 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 Equus’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Hyundai service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Hyundai Equus bouncing excessively? Excessive bouncing in your Hyundai Equus 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 Equus tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Equus'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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Hyundai Equus are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Equus feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Equus travels over minor bumps.
