Does Your 2013 Nissan NV1500 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2013 Nissan NV1500, 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 NV1500 bounces, pulls 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 2013 Nissan NV1500 in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

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, shocks, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Nissan NV1500 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Nissan NV1500

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2013 Nissan NV1500 suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2013 Nissan NV1500’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Nissan NV1500 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2013 Nissan NV1500 suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2013 Nissan NV1500 Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my NV1500'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 NV1500 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 correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my Nissan NV1500 power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your NV1500’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Nissan's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Nissan NV1500 bouncing so much? Excessive bouncing in your Nissan NV1500 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 NV1500 tilt forward when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your NV1500 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 do worn Nissan NV1500 shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your NV1500 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your NV1500 travels over minor bumps.
