When To Get 2017 Mercedes-Benz CLS400 Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2017 Mercedes-Benz CLS400, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your CLS400 feels bouncy, pulls to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2017 Mercedes-Benz CLS400, bring it in for suspension and steering service. 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your CLS400 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 CLS400 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Mercedes-Benz CLS400

Your 2017 Mercedes-Benz CLS400’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. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2017 Mercedes-Benz CLS400 shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Mercedes-Benz CLS400 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2017 Mercedes-Benz CLS400’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.

Questions About 2017 Mercedes-Benz CLS400 Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my CLS400's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your 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 CLS400? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Mercedes-Benz intended.
  • When does Mercedes-Benz CLS400 power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your CLS400’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Mercedes-Benz's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Mercedes-Benz CLS400 bounce so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your CLS400 to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my CLS400 to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your CLS400 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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Mercedes-Benz CLS400 need replacing? If your CLS400 shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your CLS400 might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
