Does Your 2017 Hyundai Tucson Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2017 Hyundai Tucson, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Tucson feels bouncy, pulls 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 2017 Hyundai Tucson in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If parts of your Hyundai Tucson suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Hyundai Tucson Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2017 Hyundai Tucson’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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 Tucson’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Hyundai Tucson shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2017 Hyundai Tucson suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

2017 Tucson 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 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 Tucson? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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 Tucson 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 Tucson’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Hyundai's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Hyundai Tucson bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Tucson goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • Why does my Tucson tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Tucson'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 Tucson shocks feel like? If your Tucson shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your Tucson might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
