When To Get 2008 Infiniti FX45 Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2008 Infiniti FX45, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your FX45 feels bouncy, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2008 Infiniti FX45 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 dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If parts of your Infiniti FX45 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, 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 Infiniti FX45

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2008 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2008 Infiniti FX45’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Infiniti FX45 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2008 Infiniti FX45’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 2008 Infiniti FX45 Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my FX45's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Infiniti FX45? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. 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 Infiniti intended.
  • When does Infiniti FX45 power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? 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 smoothly.
  • Why is my Infiniti FX45 bouncing 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 dip in the front end of your FX45 when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Infiniti FX45 are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your FX45 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your FX45 travels over minor bumps.
