When To Get 2002 Infiniti I35 Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2002 Infiniti I35, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your I35 feels bouncy, drifts 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 2002 Infiniti I35 in for suspension and steering service. 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If parts of your Infiniti I35 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.

Infiniti I35 Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2002 Infiniti I35’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Infiniti up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2002 Infiniti I35 shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Infiniti I35 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2002 Infiniti I35’s 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.

2002 I35 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my I35'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.
  • Why should my Infiniti I35 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. 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 I35 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 I35’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Infiniti service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Infiniti I35 to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Infiniti I35 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.
  • What can cause the front end of my I35 to dip forward when I apply 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 Infiniti I35 need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your I35 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your I35 travels over minor bumps.
