Does Your 2016 Infiniti QX50 Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2016 Infiniti QX50, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your QX50 jolts, pulls 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 2016 Infiniti QX50, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. 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 absorbers, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your QX50 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 parts of your Infiniti QX50 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Infiniti QX50 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2016 Infiniti QX50 suspension system. 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 components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 2016 Infiniti QX50 shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Infiniti QX50 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2016 Infiniti QX50’s 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.

2016 QX50 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • 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. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Infiniti QX50? 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 the tires come into contact with the road in the way Infiniti intended.
  • When does Infiniti QX50 power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your QX50’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Infiniti's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Infiniti QX50 bounce so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your QX50 to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my QX50 to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your QX50's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • How do I know if I have worn Infiniti QX50 shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your QX50 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your QX50 travels over minor bumps.
