Is It Time For 2024 Mazda CX-5 Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2024 Mazda CX-5, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your CX-5 feels bouncy, pulls to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2024 Mazda CX-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 parts, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem 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 Mazda CX-5 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Mazda CX-5 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2024 Mazda CX-5’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. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2024 Mazda CX-5’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Mazda CX-5 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your CX-5’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2024 Mazda CX-5 Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Mazda's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Mazda CX-5? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big 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 Mazda intended.
  • Does my Mazda CX-5 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 power steering fluid needs to be filled, we can fill it per Mazda's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Mazda CX-5 to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Mazda CX-5 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 CX-5 tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your CX-5's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • How do I know if I have worn Mazda CX-5 shocks? Worn CX-5 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your CX-5 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your CX-5 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
