Does Your 2020 Jeep Cherokee Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2020 Jeep Cherokee, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Cherokee bounces, leans to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2020 Jeep Cherokee in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Cherokee steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, 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 2020 Jeep Cherokee’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Jeep up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2020 Jeep Cherokee shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Jeep Cherokee shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2020 Jeep 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 2020 Jeep Cherokee Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Jeep's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated 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 Jeep Cherokee 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 correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires connect with the road how Jeep intended.
  • When should I have my Jeep Cherokee power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Cherokee’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Jeep's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Jeep Cherokee bouncing excessively? Excessive bouncing in your Jeep Cherokee 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.
  • 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.
  • How do I know if I have worn Jeep Cherokee shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Cherokee feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Cherokee travels over minor bumps.
