When To Get 2006 Isuzu Ascender Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2006 Isuzu Ascender, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your Ascender feels bouncy, pulls to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2006 Isuzu Ascender in for suspension and steering service. 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 absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Ascender suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Ascender steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Isuzu Ascender Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2006 Isuzu Ascender’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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 Isuzu up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Ascender’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Isuzu Ascender shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Ascender’s 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.

2006 Ascender Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Isuzu's 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 should my Isuzu Ascender 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. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does Isuzu Ascender 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 power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll follow Isuzu service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Isuzu Ascender bouncing excessively? 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 Ascender's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • How do I know if I have worn Isuzu Ascender shocks? Worn Ascender shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Ascender might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Ascender shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
