When To Get 2017 Subaru Impreza Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2017 Subaru Impreza, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Impreza feels bouncy, pulls to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2017 Subaru Impreza, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Subaru Impreza’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Subaru Impreza Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2017 Subaru Impreza suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Subaru up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Impreza’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Subaru Impreza shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Impreza’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2017 Impreza Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Impreza's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also let you know when it's time to replace your 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Subaru Impreza? 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 Subaru intended.
  • When does Subaru Impreza 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 Impreza’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Subaru's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Subaru Impreza to have a bouncy ride? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Impreza to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Impreza's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Impreza 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 Subaru Impreza need replacing? If your Impreza shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your Impreza might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
