When To Get 2024 Land Rover Defender 90 Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2024 Land Rover Defender 90, 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 Defender 90 bounces, sways 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 2024 Land Rover Defender 90 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, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem 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 parts of your Land Rover Defender 90 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Land Rover Defender 90

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2024 Land Rover Defender 90 suspension system. 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 components work together to limit vibration and keep your Land Rover up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2024 Land Rover Defender 90’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Land Rover Defender 90 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2024 Land Rover Defender 90’s 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.

2024 Defender 90 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Land Rover's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need 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 bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Land Rover Defender 90? 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 connect with the road how Land Rover intended.
  • When does Land Rover Defender 90 power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Defender 90 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Land Rover's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Land Rover Defender 90 bouncing excessively? Excessive bouncing in your Land Rover Defender 90 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.
  • Why does my Defender 90 front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your Defender 90 when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Land Rover Defender 90 are bad? Worn Defender 90 shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
