Does Your 2017 Jeep Wrangler Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2017 Jeep Wrangler, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Wrangler jolts, drifts to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2017 Jeep Wrangler in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Jeep Wrangler 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 Wrangler Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2017 Jeep Wrangler suspension system. 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 limit vibration and keep your Jeep up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Wrangler’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Jeep Wrangler shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2017 Jeep Wrangler’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 2017 Jeep Wrangler Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Wrangler's steering and 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 bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Jeep Wrangler? 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 connect with the road how Jeep intended.
  • Does my Jeep Wrangler 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 power steering fluid needs to be filled, we can fill it per Jeep's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Jeep Wrangler to have a bouncy ride? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my Wrangler tilt forward when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Wrangler 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 Wrangler shocks? 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.
