Is It Time For 2017 Lexus ES300h Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2017 Lexus ES300h, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your ES300h feels bouncy, leans to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2017 Lexus ES300h, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, wheel hub 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 all of your options and the potential cost. If your ES300h steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Lexus ES300h Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2017 Lexus ES300h suspension system. 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 components work together to limit vibration and keep your Lexus up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your ES300h’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Lexus ES300h shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2017 Lexus ES300h suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2017 ES300h Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my ES300h's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, 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.
  • Why should my Lexus ES300h get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires connect with the road how Lexus intended.
  • When does Lexus ES300h 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 ES300h is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Lexus's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Lexus ES300h bouncing so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your ES300h 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.
  • Why does my ES300h tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your ES300h'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 Lexus ES300h need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your ES300h feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your ES300h travels over minor bumps.
