Is It Time For 2021 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2021 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your CLA45 AMG jolts, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2021 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG in for suspension and steering service. 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, bushings, struts, chassis components, axle 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 go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 2021 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 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 CLA45 AMG’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your CLA45 AMG’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2021 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my CLA45 AMG'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. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When should I have my Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your CLA45 AMG is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Mercedes-Benz service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG bouncing so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your CLA45 AMG to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my CLA45 AMG to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your CLA45 AMG 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 CLA45 AMG are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your CLA45 AMG feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your CLA45 AMG travels over minor bumps.
