Is It Time For 2013 Lexus IS F Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2013 Lexus IS F, 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 IS F jolts, drifts 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 2013 Lexus IS F in for steering and suspension repairs. 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 take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your IS F suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Lexus IS F’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Lexus IS F

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2013 Lexus IS F 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2013 Lexus IS F shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Lexus IS F shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2013 Lexus IS F suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2013 Lexus IS F Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Lexus's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Lexus IS F? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Lexus intended.
  • When does Lexus IS F 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 IS F is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Lexus's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Lexus IS F bouncing excessively? Excessive bouncing in your Lexus IS F 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 IS F's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your IS F'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.
  • How do I know if I have worn Lexus IS F shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your IS F feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your IS F travels over minor bumps.
