Is It Time For 2009 Lexus LX570 Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2009 Lexus LX570, 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 LX570 bounces, pulls 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 2009 Lexus LX570, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

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, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Lexus LX570 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Lexus LX570 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2009 Lexus LX570’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 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 LX570’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Lexus LX570 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2009 Lexus LX570’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

2009 LX570 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • 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 LX570? 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 LX570 power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your LX570 is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Lexus's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Lexus LX570 bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your Lexus LX570 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 LX570 tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your LX570 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 LX570 shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your LX570 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your LX570 travels over minor bumps.
