Does Your 2004 Infiniti FX45 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2004 Infiniti FX45, 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 FX45 bounces, sways 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 2004 Infiniti FX45 in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your FX45 suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your FX45 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.

Infiniti FX45 Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2004 Infiniti FX45’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Infiniti up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2004 Infiniti FX45 shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Infiniti FX45 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your FX45’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

2004 FX45 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Infiniti's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my Infiniti FX45 get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Infiniti intended.
  • When should I have my Infiniti FX45 power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we can fill it per Infiniti's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Infiniti FX45 bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your FX45 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 FX45 front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your FX45'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 do I know if I have worn Infiniti FX45 shocks? Worn FX45 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.
