Is It Time For 2009 Infiniti FX35 Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2009 Infiniti FX35, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your FX35 bounces, leans to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2009 Infiniti FX35 in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, 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 car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Infiniti FX35’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.

Infiniti FX35 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 2009 Infiniti FX35’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your FX35’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 Infiniti FX35 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2009 Infiniti FX35 suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.

2009 FX35 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Infiniti's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why should my Infiniti FX35 get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. 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.
  • When does Infiniti FX35 power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your FX35’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Infiniti's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Infiniti FX35 bouncing so much? Excessive bouncing in your Infiniti FX35 might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • Why does my FX35 tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your FX35'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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Infiniti FX35 are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your FX35 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your FX35 travels over minor bumps.
