Is It Time For 2007 Saab 9-5 Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2007 Saab 9-5, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your 9-5 feels bouncy, pulls to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2007 Saab 9-5 in for suspension and steering service. 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 dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your 9-5 suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Saab 9-5 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Saab 9-5 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 2007 Saab 9-5’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2007 Saab 9-5 shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Saab 9-5 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2007 Saab 9-5 suspension 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.

Questions About 2007 Saab 9-5 Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Saab's 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 Saab 9-5 get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. 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 Saab intended.
  • When does Saab 9-5 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 Saab's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Saab 9-5 to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your 9-5 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.
  • Why does my 9-5 front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your 9-5 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 Saab 9-5 are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your 9-5 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your 9-5 travels over minor bumps.
