Does Your 2009 Lexus LS600h Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2009 Lexus LS600h, 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 LS600h jolts, leans 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 2009 Lexus LS600h in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your LS600h steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, 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 LS600h

Your 2009 Lexus LS600h’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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. But there's no set schedule for 2009 Lexus LS600h shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Lexus LS600h shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2009 Lexus LS600h’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

Questions About 2009 Lexus LS600h Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Lexus's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Lexus LS600h? 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 connect with the road how Lexus intended.
  • When does Lexus LS600h power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your LS600h’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Lexus's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Lexus LS600h bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your LS600h goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • What can cause the front end of my LS600h to dip forward when I apply the brakes? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Lexus LS600h need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your LS600h feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your LS600h travels over minor bumps.
