When To Get 2011 Suzuki Kizashi Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2011 Suzuki Kizashi, 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 Kizashi feels bouncy, pulls 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 2011 Suzuki Kizashi in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

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 absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Kizashi 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 Suzuki Kizashi’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 Kizashi Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2011 Suzuki Kizashi’s suspension. 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 Kizashi’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Suzuki Kizashi shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Kizashi’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.

2011 Kizashi Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Kizashi'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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Suzuki Kizashi? 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When should I have my Suzuki Kizashi power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Kizashi’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Suzuki's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Suzuki Kizashi bouncing so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Kizashi 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 Kizashi tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Kizashi'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 Suzuki Kizashi shocks feel like? Worn Kizashi shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Kizashi might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Kizashi shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
