Is It Time For 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLA250 Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLA250, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your GLA250 feels bouncy, drifts 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 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLA250 in for suspension and steering service. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

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, shock dampeners, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your GLA250 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 GLA250 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Mercedes-Benz GLA250 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLA250 suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLA250 shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Mercedes-Benz GLA250 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLA250 suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

2024 GLA250 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Mercedes-Benz's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also let you know when it's time to replace your 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 GLA250? 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 connect with the road how Mercedes-Benz intended.
  • Does my Mercedes-Benz GLA250 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 GLA250’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Mercedes-Benz service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Mercedes-Benz GLA250 bouncing so much? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my GLA250 front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your GLA250 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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Mercedes-Benz GLA250 are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your GLA250 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your GLA250 travels over minor bumps.
