Is It Time For 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Eclipse bounces, sways to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse 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’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Eclipse 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 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse’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 components work together to limit vibration and keep your Mitsubishi up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Eclipse’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Mitsubishi Eclipse shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.

2007 Eclipse Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Mitsubishi's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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 Mitsubishi Eclipse 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 Mitsubishi intended.
  • Does my Mitsubishi Eclipse power steering fluid need to be checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Eclipse is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Mitsubishi's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Mitsubishi Eclipse bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your Mitsubishi Eclipse might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • Why does my Eclipse tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Eclipse 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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Mitsubishi Eclipse need replacing? Worn Eclipse 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.
