Recommended Maintenance Schedule for 2019 Toyota Sequoia

When should you have your 2019 Toyota Sequoia suspension system inspected or repaired?

Does Your 2019 Toyota Sequoia Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2019 Toyota Sequoia, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your Sequoia feels bouncy, pulls to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2019 Toyota Sequoia, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. 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 take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Sequoia 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.

Toyota Sequoia Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2019 Toyota Sequoia’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the 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 Sequoia’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Toyota Sequoia shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2019 Toyota Sequoia’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.

2019 Sequoia Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Toyota's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new 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.
  • Why should my Toyota Sequoia get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. 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 Toyota intended.
  • When should I have my Toyota Sequoia power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Sequoia’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Toyota service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Toyota Sequoia bouncing excessively? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Sequoia 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 Sequoia tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Sequoia'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.
  • How do I know if I have worn Toyota Sequoia shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Sequoia feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Sequoia travels over minor bumps.
