When To Get 2014 Scion xD Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2014 Scion xD, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your xD jolts, 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 2014 Scion xD in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your xD suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your xD 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.

Scion xD Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2014 Scion xD suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your xD’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Scion xD shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your xD’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2014 xD Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my xD's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my Scion xD 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 right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires connect with the road how Scion intended.
  • When does Scion xD power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your xD’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Scion's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Scion xD to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Scion xD 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 xD's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your xD 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 are the signs that the shocks on my Scion xD need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your xD feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your xD travels over minor bumps.
