Does Your 2016 Infiniti QX70 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2016 Infiniti QX70, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your QX70 jolts, pulls to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2016 Infiniti QX70 in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

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, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. 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 parts of your Infiniti QX70 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 QX70 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 2016 Infiniti QX70’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the 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 QX70’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Infiniti QX70 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2016 Infiniti QX70 suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2016 QX70 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 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.
  • Why should my Infiniti QX70 get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Infiniti intended.
  • When does Infiniti QX70 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 QX70 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 QX70 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 QX70 tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your QX70 when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Infiniti QX70 need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your QX70 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your QX70 travels over minor bumps.
