Is It Time For 2018 Volvo XC60 Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2018 Volvo XC60, 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 XC60 feels bouncy, 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 2018 Volvo XC60 in for steering and suspension repairs. 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 check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your XC60 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 Volvo XC60’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Volvo XC60 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2018 Volvo XC60’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 2018 Volvo XC60 shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Volvo XC60 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2018 Volvo XC60 suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2018 XC60 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Volvo'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 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 XC60? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major 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 Volvo intended.
  • When should I have my Volvo XC60 power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your XC60 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Volvo service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Volvo XC60 bouncing so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your XC60 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.
  • What can cause the front end of my XC60 to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your XC60 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 Volvo XC60 shocks? If your XC60 shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your XC60 might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
