Is It Time For 2017 Jeep Cherokee Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2017 Jeep Cherokee, 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 Cherokee bounces, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2017 Jeep Cherokee, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Cherokee suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If parts of your Jeep Cherokee 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.

Jeep Cherokee Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2017 Jeep Cherokee’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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 2017 Jeep Cherokee shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Jeep Cherokee shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Cherokee’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2017 Jeep Cherokee Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Cherokee's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Jeep Cherokee? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires connect with the road how Jeep intended.
  • Does my Jeep Cherokee power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Cherokee is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Jeep service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Jeep Cherokee bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Cherokee to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my Cherokee to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Cherokee 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 Jeep Cherokee need replacing? Worn Cherokee shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
