Is It Time For 2009 Jeep Wrangler Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2009 Jeep Wrangler, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Wrangler jolts, pulls 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 2009 Jeep Wrangler in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Wrangler 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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Jeep Wrangler

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2009 Jeep Wrangler’s suspension. 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. But there's no set schedule for 2009 Jeep Wrangler shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Jeep Wrangler shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Wrangler’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2009 Wrangler Steering & Suspension Questions

  • 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 Wrangler 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 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 does Jeep Wrangler power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll follow Jeep service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Jeep Wrangler bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Wrangler to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Wrangler's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Wrangler 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 do worn Jeep Wrangler shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Wrangler feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Wrangler travels over minor bumps.
