Is It Time For 2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross, 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 Eclipse Cross jolts, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross, bring it in for steering and suspension services. 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’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, wheel hub 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 explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Eclipse Cross 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.

Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross’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. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the 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 2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2018 Eclipse Cross Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Eclipse Cross's steering and 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. 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 Mitsubishi intended.
  • When does Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross 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 Eclipse Cross is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Mitsubishi's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Eclipse Cross to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Eclipse Cross's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • What do worn Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross shocks feel like? Worn Eclipse Cross 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.
