Does Your 2004 Infiniti M45 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2004 Infiniti M45, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your M45 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 M45 in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your M45 suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your M45 steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Infiniti M45 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 2004 Infiniti M45’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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 2004 Infiniti M45’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Infiniti M45 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2004 Infiniti M45 suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2004 Infiniti M45 Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Infiniti's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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 bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Infiniti M45? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big 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 should I have my Infiniti M45 power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your M45’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Infiniti's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Infiniti M45 to have a bouncy ride? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your M45 to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my M45 tilt forward when I hit 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 M45 need replacing? Worn M45 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your M45 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your M45 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
