Does Your 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your Santa Fe Sport feels bouncy, leans to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport 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 take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Santa Fe Sport suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If parts of your Hyundai Santa Fe Sport suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Hyundai Santa Fe Sport Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Santa Fe Sport’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Hyundai Santa Fe Sport shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Santa Fe Sport’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

Questions About 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Hyundai's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for 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 Santa Fe Sport? 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 Santa Fe Sport 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 Santa Fe Sport is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Hyundai service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Hyundai Santa Fe Sport bouncing excessively? 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 Santa Fe Sport tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Santa Fe Sport'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 do worn Hyundai Santa Fe Sport shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Santa Fe Sport feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Santa Fe Sport travels over minor bumps.
