When To Get 2021 Volkswagen Arteon Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2021 Volkswagen Arteon, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Arteon jolts, leans to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2021 Volkswagen Arteon, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. 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, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Arteon suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Volkswagen Arteon suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Volkswagen Arteon

Your 2021 Volkswagen Arteon’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. 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 Volkswagen up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2021 Volkswagen Arteon’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 could all be indicators of worn Volkswagen Arteon shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Arteon’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2021 Arteon Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Volkswagen'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 Volkswagen Arteon 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. 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 Volkswagen intended.
  • When should I have my Volkswagen Arteon power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Arteon is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Volkswagen's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Volkswagen Arteon 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 Arteon to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Arteon front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Arteon 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.
  • How do I know if I have worn Volkswagen Arteon shocks? Worn Arteon shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Arteon might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Arteon shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
