Does Your 2012 Hyundai Tucson Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2012 Hyundai Tucson, 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 Tucson bounces, pulls to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2012 Hyundai Tucson in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Tucson steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Hyundai Tucson

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2012 Hyundai Tucson suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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 2012 Hyundai Tucson shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Hyundai Tucson shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Tucson’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.

2012 Tucson Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Tucson's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why should my Hyundai Tucson get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. 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 Tucson power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we can fill it per Hyundai's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Hyundai Tucson bounce so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Tucson to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my Tucson to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Tucson 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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Hyundai Tucson need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Tucson feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Tucson travels over minor bumps.
