Is It Time For 2017 Mercedes-Benz C300 Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2017 Mercedes-Benz C300, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your C300 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 2017 Mercedes-Benz C300, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If your C300 steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Mercedes-Benz C300 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2017 Mercedes-Benz C300 suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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 2017 Mercedes-Benz C300’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Mercedes-Benz C300 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2017 Mercedes-Benz C300 suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.

2017 C300 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in 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.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Mercedes-Benz C300? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires connect with the road how Mercedes-Benz intended.
  • When should I have my Mercedes-Benz C300 power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your C300’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Mercedes-Benz's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Mercedes-Benz C300 bouncing so much? Excessive bouncing in your Mercedes-Benz C300 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 C300 front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your C300 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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Mercedes-Benz C300 are bad? Worn C300 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your C300 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your C300 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
