Does Your 2019 Volvo V60 Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2019 Volvo V60, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your V60 jolts, leans 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 Volvo V60 in for suspension and steering service. 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 dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem 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 parts of your Volvo V60 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.

Volvo V60 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2019 Volvo V60 suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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 V60’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Volvo V60 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your V60’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

2019 V60 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my V60's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated 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.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Volvo V60? 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.
  • Does my Volvo V60 power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your V60’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Volvo's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Volvo V60 bouncing so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your V60 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 V60 front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your V60 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 can I tell if the shocks on my Volvo V60 are bad? Worn V60 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your V60 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your V60 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
