When To Get 2010 Infiniti QX56 Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2010 Infiniti QX56, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your QX56 jolts, leans 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 2010 Infiniti QX56, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If parts of your Infiniti QX56 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Infiniti QX56 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 2010 Infiniti QX56’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 components work together to limit vibration and keep your Infiniti up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your QX56’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Infiniti QX56 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your QX56’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2010 QX56 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact 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 should my Infiniti QX56 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 come into contact with the road in the way Infiniti intended.
  • When should I have my Infiniti QX56 power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your QX56 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 QX56 to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Infiniti QX56 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 QX56's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your QX56 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 can I tell if the shocks on my Infiniti QX56 are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your QX56 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your QX56 travels over minor bumps.
