When To Get 2023 Lexus IS300 Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2023 Lexus IS300, 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 IS300 jolts, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2023 Lexus IS300 in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, axle bearings, and the power steering system. 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 your IS300 steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Lexus IS300

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2023 Lexus IS300 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 Lexus up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your IS300’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Lexus IS300 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2023 Lexus IS300’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

Questions About 2023 Lexus IS300 Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my IS300'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 Lexus IS300 get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. 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.
  • Does my Lexus IS300 power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your IS300 is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Lexus's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Lexus IS300 to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Lexus IS300 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 IS300's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your IS300'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 can I tell if the shocks on my Lexus IS300 are bad? Worn IS300 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your IS300 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your IS300 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
