Is It Time For 2016 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2016 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your AMG GT S bounces, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2016 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S in for steering and suspension repairs. 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your AMG GT S suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If parts of your Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S 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.

Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2016 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S suspension system. 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 components work together to limit vibration and keep your Mercedes-Benz up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2016 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your AMG GT S’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2016 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Mercedes-Benz's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Mercedes-Benz intended.
  • When should I have my Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your AMG GT S is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Mercedes-Benz service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S to have a bouncy ride? 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 AMG GT S front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your AMG GT S 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 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your AMG GT S feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your AMG GT S travels over minor bumps.
