Is It Time For 2023 Land Rover Defender 110 Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2023 Land Rover Defender 110, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Defender 110 jolts, sways 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 2023 Land Rover Defender 110 in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, 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 all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Land Rover Defender 110 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Land Rover Defender 110 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2023 Land Rover Defender 110’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the 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 2023 Land Rover Defender 110’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Land Rover Defender 110 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2023 Land Rover Defender 110 suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2023 Land Rover Defender 110 Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Defender 110's steering and 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 Land Rover Defender 110 get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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 Land Rover intended.
  • Does my Land Rover Defender 110 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 Defender 110 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Land Rover service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Land Rover Defender 110 bouncing excessively? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Defender 110 goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • What can cause the front end of my Defender 110 to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Defender 110 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.
  • What do worn Land Rover Defender 110 shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Defender 110 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Defender 110 travels over minor bumps.
