Does Your 2013 Lexus LS460 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2013 Lexus LS460, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your LS460 bounces, leans to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2013 Lexus LS460, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. 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 your LS460 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.

Lexus LS460 Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2013 Lexus LS460’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2013 Lexus LS460’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Lexus LS460 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your LS460’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2013 LS460 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my LS460's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Lexus LS460? 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my Lexus LS460 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 LS460 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Lexus service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Lexus LS460 bouncing so much? Excessive bouncing in your Lexus LS460 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 LS460 front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your LS460 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 do I know if I have worn Lexus LS460 shocks? Worn LS460 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your LS460 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your LS460 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
