What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Hyundai's suspension?

Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.

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.

When should I have my Hyundai Tucson power steering fluid checked?

Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Tucson is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Hyundai's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.

What can cause my Hyundai Tucson to have a bouncy ride?

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?

When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.

What are the signs that the shocks on my Hyundai Tucson need replacing?

Worn Tucson shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Tucson might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Tucson shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.

Does Your 2021 Hyundai Tucson Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2021 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. Maybe your Tucson bounces, leans to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2021 Hyundai Tucson, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, 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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Hyundai Tucson

Your 2021 Hyundai Tucson’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. 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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Tucson’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Hyundai Tucson shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2021 Hyundai Tucson suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.
