Does Your 2011 Mitsubishi Galant Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2011 Mitsubishi Galant, 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 Galant 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 2011 Mitsubishi Galant in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, 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 Galant steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Mitsubishi Galant Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2011 Mitsubishi Galant suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Galant’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Mitsubishi Galant shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2011 Mitsubishi Galant suspension 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.

2011 Galant Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Galant's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also let you know when it's time to replace your 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 Galant get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. 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.
  • When should I have my Mitsubishi Galant power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Galant is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Mitsubishi service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Mitsubishi Galant bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Galant to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Galant'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 are the signs that the shocks on my Mitsubishi Galant need replacing? Worn Galant shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Galant might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Galant shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
