Is It Time For 2024 Kia Sportage Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2024 Kia Sportage, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Sportage jolts, pulls to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2024 Kia Sportage in for suspension and steering service. 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’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, 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 Kia Sportage’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Kia Sportage Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2024 Kia Sportage’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 Kia up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2024 Kia Sportage shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Kia Sportage shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2024 Kia Sportage suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

2024 Sportage Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • 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 let you know when it's time to replace your 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Kia Sportage? 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 connect with the road how Kia intended.
  • When does Kia Sportage power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Sportage’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 Sportage bouncing so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Sportage to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Sportage's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Sportage 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 can I tell if the shocks on my Kia Sportage are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Sportage feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Sportage travels over minor bumps.
