Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Volvo's suspension?

Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also let you know when it's time to replace your 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.

Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Volvo S80?

Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. 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 Volvo intended.

When does Volvo S80 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 S80 is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Volvo's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.

Why is my Volvo S80 bouncing so much?

If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your S80 to bounce more than usual.

Why does my S80 tilt forward when I hit the brakes?

As you brake, the forward momentum of your S80 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 Volvo S80 need replacing?

Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your S80 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your S80 travels over minor bumps.

Does Your 2007 Volvo S80 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2007 Volvo S80, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your S80 feels bouncy, sways 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 2007 Volvo S80, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your S80 suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Volvo S80’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.

Volvo S80 Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2007 Volvo S80’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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. But there's no set schedule for 2007 Volvo S80 shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Volvo S80 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your S80’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.
