Does Your 2007 Volvo V70 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2007 Volvo V70, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your V70 bounces, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2007 Volvo V70 in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your V70 suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your V70 steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, 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 Volvo V70

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2007 Volvo V70 suspension system. 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 components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2007 Volvo V70’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Volvo V70 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2007 Volvo V70 suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

Questions About 2007 Volvo V70 Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Volvo's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, 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 bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Volvo V70? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does Volvo V70 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 V70’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Volvo's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Volvo V70 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 V70 to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my V70's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • How do I know if I have worn Volvo V70 shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your V70 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your V70 travels over minor bumps.
