Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Lexus's suspension?

Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also alert you to the need for 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 LS500?

Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires connect with the road how Lexus intended.

When should I have my Lexus LS500 power steering fluid checked?

Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your LS500’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Lexus's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.

Why is my Lexus LS500 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 LS500 to bounce more than usual.

Why does my LS500 tilt forward when I hit the brakes?

As you brake, the forward momentum of your LS500 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.

How do I know if I have worn Lexus LS500 shocks?

Worn LS500 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your LS500 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your LS500 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.

Does Your 2024 Lexus LS500 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2024 Lexus LS500, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your LS500 feels bouncy, leans to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2024 Lexus LS500 in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your LS500 steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Lexus LS500

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2024 Lexus LS500 suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Struts support the structure of the suspension and 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 getting your 2024 Lexus LS500’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Lexus LS500 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your LS500’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.
