When To Get 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE450 AMG Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE450 AMG, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your GLE450 AMG bounces, drifts 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 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE450 AMG, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Mercedes-Benz GLE450 AMG’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Mercedes-Benz GLE450 AMG Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE450 AMG suspension system. 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 getting your 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE450 AMG’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Mercedes-Benz GLE450 AMG shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE450 AMG’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

2016 GLE450 AMG Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my GLE450 AMG's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also alert you to the need for new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Mercedes-Benz GLE450 AMG? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Mercedes-Benz intended.
  • When does Mercedes-Benz GLE450 AMG power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your GLE450 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 is my Mercedes-Benz GLE450 AMG bouncing excessively? 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 GLE450 AMG front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your GLE450 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 GLE450 AMG shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your GLE450 AMG feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your GLE450 AMG travels over minor bumps.
