Does Your 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander, 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 Outlander jolts, drifts 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 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander in for steering and suspension repairs. 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, shocks, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your Outlander suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Mitsubishi Outlander suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Mitsubishi Outlander Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Mitsubishi up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Mitsubishi Outlander shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Outlander’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2010 Outlander Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Outlander's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Mitsubishi Outlander? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires connect with the road how Mitsubishi intended.
  • Does my Mitsubishi Outlander 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 Outlander’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Mitsubishi's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Mitsubishi Outlander bounce so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Outlander to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Outlander front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Outlander 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 Mitsubishi Outlander shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Outlander feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Outlander travels over minor bumps.
