Does Your 2009 Infiniti M45 Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2009 Infiniti M45, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your M45 feels bouncy, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2009 Infiniti M45 in for suspension and steering service. 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 check the front and rear suspension, shocks, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. 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 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 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2009 Infiniti M45 suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Struts support the structure of the suspension and 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 getting your 2009 Infiniti M45’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Infiniti M45 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2009 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.

2009 M45 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • 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. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Infiniti M45? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major 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 does Infiniti M45 power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your M45 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Infiniti's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Infiniti M45 to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your M45 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 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 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.
