Is It Time For 1993 Infiniti Q45 Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 1993 Infiniti Q45, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your Q45 feels bouncy, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 1993 Infiniti Q45, bring it 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Infiniti Q45’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 Q45 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1993 Infiniti Q45’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Q45’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Infiniti Q45 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Q45’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 1993 Infiniti Q45 Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Infiniti's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my Infiniti Q45 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 connect with the road how Infiniti intended.
  • When does Infiniti Q45 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 Q45 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Infiniti's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Infiniti Q45 bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Q45 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 Q45's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Q45 combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • What do worn Infiniti Q45 shocks feel like? Worn Q45 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Q45 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Q45 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
