Does Your 2018 Hyundai Tucson Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2018 Hyundai Tucson, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Tucson bounces, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2018 Hyundai Tucson in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, 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 explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Hyundai Tucson’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, 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 2018 Hyundai Tucson’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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 getting your 2018 Hyundai Tucson’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Hyundai Tucson shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2018 Hyundai Tucson’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

2018 Tucson Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Hyundai's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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 bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Hyundai Tucson? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. 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.
  • 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’ll follow Hyundai service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Hyundai Tucson bouncing 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.
  • 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? Worn Tucson shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
