When To Get 2023 Subaru Ascent Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2023 Subaru Ascent, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your Ascent feels bouncy, drifts to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2023 Subaru Ascent, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Ascent suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If parts of your Subaru Ascent 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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Subaru Ascent

Your 2023 Subaru Ascent’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 Subaru up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2023 Subaru Ascent shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Subaru Ascent shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Ascent’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2023 Ascent Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Subaru's suspension? Maintaining your tires 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 should my Subaru Ascent 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. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does Subaru Ascent 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 Ascent is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Subaru service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Subaru Ascent bouncing excessively? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Ascent 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 Ascent tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Ascent when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Subaru Ascent are bad? Worn Ascent shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Ascent might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Ascent shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
