Does Your 2013 Jeep Compass Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2013 Jeep Compass, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Compass bounces, pulls to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2013 Jeep Compass in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue 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 Jeep Compass 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.

Jeep Compass Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 2013 Jeep Compass’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Compass’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Jeep Compass shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2013 Jeep Compass suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 2013 Jeep Compass Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Jeep's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, 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 Compass 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 right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires connect with the road how Jeep intended.
  • Does my Jeep Compass power steering fluid need to be checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Compass is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Jeep's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Jeep Compass bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your Jeep Compass 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 Compass to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Compass 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 do I know if I have worn Jeep Compass shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Compass feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Compass travels over minor bumps.
