Is It Time For 2005 Suzuki XL-7 Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2005 Suzuki XL-7, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your XL-7 feels bouncy, pulls to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2005 Suzuki XL-7 in for suspension and steering service. 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’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering components. 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 XL-7 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.

Suzuki XL-7 Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2005 Suzuki XL-7’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 limit vibration and keep your Suzuki up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2005 Suzuki XL-7’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Suzuki XL-7 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2005 Suzuki XL-7’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

Questions About 2005 Suzuki XL-7 Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Suzuki's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also alert you to the need for new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Suzuki XL-7? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Suzuki intended.
  • When should I have my Suzuki XL-7 power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your XL-7’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Suzuki service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Suzuki XL-7 bouncing so much? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my XL-7 tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your XL-7'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 are the signs that the shocks on my Suzuki XL-7 need replacing? Worn XL-7 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your XL-7 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your XL-7 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
