Does Your 2007 Volkswagen Rabbit Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2007 Volkswagen Rabbit, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Rabbit feels bouncy, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2007 Volkswagen Rabbit in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, wheel hub 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 Rabbit’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.

Volkswagen Rabbit Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2007 Volkswagen Rabbit suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. 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 Rabbit’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Volkswagen Rabbit shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2007 Volkswagen Rabbit’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

Questions About 2007 Volkswagen Rabbit Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Volkswagen's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Volkswagen Rabbit? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires connect with the road how Volkswagen intended.
  • When should I have my Volkswagen Rabbit power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Rabbit is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Volkswagen's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Volkswagen Rabbit to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Rabbit 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 Rabbit tilt forward when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Rabbit 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 Rabbit shocks? Worn Rabbit shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Rabbit might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Rabbit shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
