When To Get 2018 Hyundai Kona Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2018 Hyundai Kona, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Kona jolts, leans 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 2018 Hyundai Kona, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Kona suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Kona 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 Kona Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2018 Hyundai Kona’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 limit vibration and keep your Hyundai up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Kona’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Hyundai Kona shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2018 Hyundai Kona suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2018 Kona Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Kona's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Hyundai Kona? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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 should I have my Hyundai Kona power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Kona is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Hyundai service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Hyundai Kona 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.
  • Why does my Kona tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Kona 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 Kona are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Kona feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Kona travels over minor bumps.
