When To Get 2017 Lexus RX350 Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2017 Lexus RX350, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your RX350 feels bouncy, leans to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2017 Lexus RX350 in for suspension and steering service. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, axle bearings, and the power steering system. 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 parts of your Lexus RX350 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, 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 RX350

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2017 Lexus RX350’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the 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 2017 Lexus RX350’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Lexus RX350 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2017 Lexus RX350’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2017 RX350 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • 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. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Lexus RX350? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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.
  • Does my Lexus RX350 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 RX350’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Lexus's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Lexus RX350 bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your RX350 to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my RX350's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your RX350 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 RX350 shocks feel like? Worn RX350 shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
