When To Get 1999 Mercedes-Benz CL500 Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 1999 Mercedes-Benz CL500, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your CL500 jolts, sways to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1999 Mercedes-Benz CL500 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 absorbers, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, 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 CL500 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 CL500 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 1999 Mercedes-Benz CL500’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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 1999 Mercedes-Benz CL500 shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Mercedes-Benz CL500 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your CL500’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 1999 Mercedes-Benz CL500 Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my CL500'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 faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Mercedes-Benz CL500? 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my Mercedes-Benz CL500 power steering fluid need to be checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your CL500’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Mercedes-Benz's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Mercedes-Benz CL500 to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your CL500 goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • Why does my CL500's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Mercedes-Benz CL500 are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your CL500 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your CL500 travels over minor bumps.
