Does Your 2001 Infiniti QX4 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2001 Infiniti QX4, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your QX4 feels bouncy, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2001 Infiniti QX4, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, 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 QX4 steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Infiniti QX4 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2001 Infiniti QX4’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. 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 QX4’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Infiniti QX4 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2001 Infiniti QX4’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

2001 QX4 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my QX4's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your 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 QX4? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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 QX4 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 power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll top it off per Infiniti's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Infiniti QX4 to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Infiniti QX4 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.
  • Why does my QX4's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your QX4 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 are the signs that the shocks on my Infiniti QX4 need replacing? Worn QX4 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your QX4 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your QX4 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
