Is It Time For 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your GLA45 AMG jolts, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems 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 GLA45 AMG steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your GLA45 AMG’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

2019 GLA45 AMG Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Mercedes-Benz's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need 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 GLA45 AMG? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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.
  • Does my Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your GLA45 AMG is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Mercedes-Benz service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your GLA45 AMG 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.
  • What can cause the front end of my GLA45 AMG to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your GLA45 AMG 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 do worn Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG shocks feel like? If your GLA45 AMG 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 GLA45 AMG might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
