Is It Time For 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2017 Jeep Grand 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 Grand Cherokee jolts, leans 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 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee in for suspension and steering service. 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 check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Grand 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 Grand Cherokee Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2017 Jeep Grand 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 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Jeep Grand Cherokee shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2017 Grand Cherokee Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Jeep's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Jeep Grand Cherokee? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Jeep intended.
  • When should I have my Jeep Grand Cherokee power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Grand Cherokee’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Jeep service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Jeep Grand Cherokee bouncing so much? Excessive bouncing in your Jeep Grand 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.
  • Why does my Grand Cherokee's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Grand 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 can I tell if the shocks on my Jeep Grand Cherokee are bad? If your Grand Cherokee shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your Grand Cherokee might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
