Does Your 2019 Mini Cooper Countryman Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2019 Mini Cooper Countryman, 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 Cooper Countryman bounces, sways to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2019 Mini Cooper Countryman in for steering and suspension repairs. 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 absorbers, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Cooper Countryman suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Mini Cooper Countryman’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Mini Cooper Countryman Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2019 Mini Cooper Countryman’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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 getting your 2019 Mini Cooper Countryman’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Mini Cooper Countryman shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2019 Mini Cooper Countryman’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2019 Cooper Countryman Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Cooper Countryman'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.
  • Why should my Mini Cooper Countryman get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Mini intended.
  • When should I have my Mini Cooper Countryman power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Cooper Countryman is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Mini's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Mini Cooper Countryman bouncing so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Cooper Countryman 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.
  • Why does my Cooper Countryman tilt forward when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Cooper Countryman 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 do I know if I have worn Mini Cooper Countryman shocks? Worn Cooper Countryman shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
