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

When you first bought your 2018 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your AMG GT S bounces, pulls 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 2018 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

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, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, 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 go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your AMG GT S steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2018 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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 2018 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2018 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2018 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my AMG GT S's steering and 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? 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 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 checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your AMG GT S is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Mercedes-Benz's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S to have a bouncy ride? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your AMG GT S to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my AMG GT S's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your AMG GT S when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • What do worn Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S shocks feel like? Worn AMG GT S 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.
