Is It Time For 2013 Scion FR-S Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2013 Scion FR-S, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your FR-S bounces, drifts 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 2013 Scion FR-S in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

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, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your FR-S suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Scion FR-S’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Scion FR-S Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2013 Scion FR-S’s suspension. 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 getting your 2013 Scion FR-S’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Scion FR-S shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2013 Scion FR-S 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 Scion FR-S Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Scion'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. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Scion FR-S? 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 connect with the road how Scion intended.
  • When should I have my Scion FR-S power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll follow Scion service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Scion FR-S bouncing so much? Excessive bouncing in your Scion FR-S 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 FR-S tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your FR-S's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • What do worn Scion FR-S shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your FR-S feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your FR-S travels over minor bumps.
