Is It Time For 2001 Infiniti Q45 Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2001 Infiniti Q45, 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. Perhaps your Q45 feels bouncy, sways to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2001 Infiniti Q45, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Q45 suspension system needs repair, 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 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 2001 Infiniti Q45’s suspension. 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2001 Infiniti Q45’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Infiniti Q45 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Q45’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2001 Q45 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • 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 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 Q45? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Infiniti intended.
  • When should I have my Infiniti Q45 power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Q45 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Infiniti's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Infiniti Q45 bounce so much? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my Q45 front end dip forward when I brake? 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.
  • How do I know if I have worn Infiniti Q45 shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Q45 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Q45 travels over minor bumps.
