Does Your 2017 Porsche Cayenne Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2017 Porsche Cayenne, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Cayenne jolts, pulls to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2017 Porsche Cayenne in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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 dampeners, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, wheel 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 what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If your Cayenne steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Porsche Cayenne Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2017 Porsche Cayenne suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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 Porsche up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2017 Porsche Cayenne’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Porsche Cayenne shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Cayenne’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2017 Cayenne Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Cayenne's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Porsche Cayenne? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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 Porsche intended.
  • When does Porsche Cayenne power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll top it off per Porsche's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Porsche Cayenne bouncing excessively? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Cayenne goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • What can cause the front end of my Cayenne to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Cayenne 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 can I tell if the shocks on my Porsche Cayenne are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Cayenne feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Cayenne travels over minor bumps.
