Is It Time For 2016 Jeep Renegade Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2016 Jeep Renegade, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Renegade bounces, drifts to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2016 Jeep Renegade in for suspension and steering service. 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 dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Renegade suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Renegade steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Jeep Renegade Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2016 Jeep Renegade suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Renegade’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Jeep Renegade shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Renegade’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2016 Renegade Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Renegade's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Why should my Jeep Renegade get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my Jeep Renegade 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 Renegade is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Jeep's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Jeep Renegade bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Renegade goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • What can cause the front end of my Renegade to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Renegade 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 Renegade need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Renegade feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Renegade travels over minor bumps.
