When To Get 2009 Kia Borrego Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2009 Kia Borrego, 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 Borrego jolts, leans to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2009 Kia Borrego in for steering and suspension services. 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 absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Borrego suspension system needs repair, 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 Borrego 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.

Kia Borrego Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2009 Kia Borrego’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. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Kia up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Borrego’s shocks and struts 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 Kia Borrego shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Borrego’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 2009 Kia Borrego Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Kia's 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 Kia Borrego 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does Kia Borrego power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Borrego’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Kia's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Kia Borrego bouncing so much? Excessive bouncing in your Kia Borrego 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.
  • What can cause the front end of my Borrego to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Borrego 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 Kia Borrego shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Borrego feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Borrego travels over minor bumps.
