When To Get 2005 Infiniti FX45 Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2005 Infiniti FX45, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your FX45 bounces, pulls to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2005 Infiniti FX45 in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

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, shock dampeners, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, wheel bearings, and power steering components. 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 FX45’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Infiniti FX45 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2005 Infiniti FX45 suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your FX45’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Infiniti FX45 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2005 Infiniti FX45 suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2005 Infiniti FX45 Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my FX45's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for 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. Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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 should I have my Infiniti FX45 power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your FX45’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Infiniti service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • 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.
  • What can cause the front end of my FX45 to dip forward when I apply the brakes? 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't effectively absorb road impacts. Your FX45 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your FX45 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
