Does Your 2019 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2019 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your Golf SportWagen feels bouncy, pulls to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2019 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen 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, shock absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Volkswagen Golf SportWagen’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Volkswagen Golf SportWagen Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2019 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. 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 Golf SportWagen’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Volkswagen Golf SportWagen shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2019 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2019 Golf SportWagen 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. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my Volkswagen Golf SportWagen 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 correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Volkswagen intended.
  • When does Volkswagen Golf SportWagen power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Golf SportWagen’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Volkswagen service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Volkswagen Golf SportWagen bouncing so much? Excessive bouncing in your Volkswagen Golf SportWagen might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • Why does my Golf SportWagen's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Golf SportWagen 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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Volkswagen Golf SportWagen need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Golf SportWagen feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Golf SportWagen travels over minor bumps.
