Is It Time For 2003 Suzuki Aerio Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2003 Suzuki Aerio, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Aerio bounces, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2003 Suzuki Aerio in for steering and suspension services. 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, shocks, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Suzuki Aerio’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Suzuki Aerio Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2003 Suzuki Aerio suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Aerio’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Suzuki Aerio shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Aerio’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2003 Aerio Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Suzuki's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why should my Suzuki Aerio 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 come into contact with the road in the way Suzuki intended.
  • Does my Suzuki Aerio power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll follow Suzuki service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Suzuki Aerio bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Aerio to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my Aerio to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Aerio 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 Suzuki Aerio are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Aerio feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Aerio travels over minor bumps.
