When To Get 2004 Lexus LS430 Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2004 Lexus LS430, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your LS430 bounces, drifts to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2004 Lexus LS430 in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your LS430 suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your LS430 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 LS430

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2004 Lexus LS430 suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your LS430’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Lexus LS430 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2004 Lexus LS430’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 2004 Lexus LS430 Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Lexus's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for 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 should my Lexus LS430 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 connect with the road how Lexus intended.
  • When should I have my Lexus LS430 power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your LS430 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Lexus service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Lexus LS430 bouncing so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your LS430 to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my LS430 to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your LS430 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 Lexus LS430 shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your LS430 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your LS430 travels over minor bumps.
