Does Your 2007 Mazda 5 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2007 Mazda 5, 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 5 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 2007 Mazda 5, bring it 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 take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems 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 Mazda 5’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Mazda 5 Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2007 Mazda 5’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. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your 5’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Mazda 5 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your 5’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 2007 Mazda 5 Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Mazda'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. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Why should my Mazda 5 get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Mazda intended.
  • Does my Mazda 5 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 5’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Mazda service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Mazda 5 bouncing so much? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my 5's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your 5 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 can I tell if the shocks on my Mazda 5 are bad? Worn 5 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your 5 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your 5 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
