Does Your 2008 Kia Amanti Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2008 Kia Amanti, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Amanti bounces, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2008 Kia Amanti, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, 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 your Amanti 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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Kia Amanti

Your 2008 Kia Amanti’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2008 Kia Amanti’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Kia Amanti shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2008 Kia Amanti suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2008 Kia Amanti Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Kia's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why should my Kia Amanti 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. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Kia intended.
  • When should I have my Kia Amanti power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Amanti’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Kia service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Kia Amanti bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Amanti to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Amanti front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Amanti's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Kia Amanti need replacing? Worn Amanti shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Amanti might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Amanti shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
