Is It Time For 2018 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT C Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2018 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT C, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your AMG GT C bounces, drifts 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 2018 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT C, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Mercedes-Benz AMG GT C’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Mercedes-Benz AMG GT C Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2018 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT C suspension system. 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your AMG GT C’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Mercedes-Benz AMG GT C shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2018 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT C’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.

2018 AMG GT C Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my AMG GT C's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need 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 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT C? 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 Mercedes-Benz intended.
  • Does my Mercedes-Benz AMG GT C 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 AMG GT C is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Mercedes-Benz's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Mercedes-Benz AMG GT C bounce so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your AMG GT C to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my AMG GT C tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your AMG GT C'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 can I tell if the shocks on my Mercedes-Benz AMG GT C are bad? Worn AMG GT C 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.
