Does Your 2020 Nissan NV1500 Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2020 Nissan NV1500, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your NV1500 bounces, sways to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2020 Nissan NV1500, bring it in for suspension and steering service. 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your NV1500 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.

Nissan NV1500 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2020 Nissan NV1500 suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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 Nissan up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your NV1500’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Nissan NV1500 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2020 Nissan NV1500 suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2020 NV1500 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • 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 faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Nissan NV1500? 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 Nissan intended.
  • Does my Nissan NV1500 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 NV1500 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Nissan service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • 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.
  • What can cause the front end of my NV1500 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 do worn Nissan NV1500 shocks feel like? If your NV1500 shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your NV1500 might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
  • Who can repair my NV1500 suspension system? When you need your NV1500 suspension system serviced, head to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care. We inspect, maintain, and repair NV1500 suspensions. Schedule your appointment today!
