Is It Time For 2012 Nissan 370Z Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2012 Nissan 370Z, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your 370Z feels bouncy, leans to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2012 Nissan 370Z in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your 370Z suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Nissan 370Z’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Nissan 370Z

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2012 Nissan 370Z suspension system. 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 Nissan up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2012 Nissan 370Z’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 could all be indicators of worn Nissan 370Z shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2012 Nissan 370Z’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2012 370Z Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my 370Z'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 Nissan 370Z 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. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires connect with the road how Nissan intended.
  • Does my Nissan 370Z power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your 370Z’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Nissan's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Nissan 370Z to have a bouncy ride? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your 370Z to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my 370Z to dip forward when I apply 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 Nissan 370Z need replacing? Worn 370Z shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your 370Z might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your 370Z shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
