What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Mini's suspension?

Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also alert you to the need for 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 Mini Cooper Countryman?

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 Mini intended.

Does my Mini Cooper Countryman power steering fluid need to be checked?

Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll top it off per Mini's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.

Why is my Mini Cooper Countryman 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 Cooper Countryman front end dip forward when I brake?

The forward dip in the front end of your Cooper Countryman 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 Mini Cooper Countryman are bad?

Worn Cooper Countryman shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Cooper Countryman might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Cooper Countryman shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.

When To Get 2015 Mini Cooper Countryman Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2015 Mini Cooper Countryman, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Cooper Countryman jolts, drifts to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2015 Mini Cooper Countryman in for suspension and steering service. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Cooper Countryman suspension system needs repair, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If your Cooper Countryman steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Mini Cooper Countryman Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2015 Mini Cooper Countryman’s suspension. 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 getting your 2015 Mini Cooper Countryman’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Mini Cooper Countryman shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2015 Mini Cooper Countryman suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.
