Is It Time For 2021 Nissan Kicks Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2021 Nissan Kicks, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your Kicks feels bouncy, sways 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 2021 Nissan Kicks in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Kicks 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.

Nissan Kicks Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2021 Nissan Kicks 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 reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2021 Nissan Kicks’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Nissan Kicks shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2021 Nissan Kicks suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2021 Nissan Kicks Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Nissan's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Nissan Kicks? 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 Nissan intended.
  • When should I have my Nissan Kicks power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Kicks’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Nissan service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Nissan Kicks bouncing excessively? Excessive bouncing in your Nissan Kicks 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 Kicks's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Kicks 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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Nissan Kicks need replacing? Worn Kicks shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Kicks might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Kicks shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
