When To Get 2024 Mazda MX-5 Miata Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2024 Mazda MX-5 Miata, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your MX-5 Miata bounces, leans to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2024 Mazda MX-5 Miata in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your MX-5 Miata suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Mazda MX-5 Miata 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 MX-5 Miata Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2024 Mazda MX-5 Miata’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 limit vibration and keep your Mazda up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2024 Mazda MX-5 Miata shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Mazda MX-5 Miata shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2024 Mazda MX-5 Miata’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

2024 MX-5 Miata Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Mazda's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my Mazda MX-5 Miata get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires connect with the road how Mazda intended.
  • When does Mazda MX-5 Miata 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 MX-5 Miata is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Mazda service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Mazda MX-5 Miata bouncing excessively? Excessive bouncing in your Mazda MX-5 Miata 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 MX-5 Miata tilt forward when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your MX-5 Miata 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 are the signs that the shocks on my Mazda MX-5 Miata need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your MX-5 Miata feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your MX-5 Miata travels over minor bumps.
