2017 suburban excessive bounce over bumps

[Abdullah576]

Hello I have a 2017 suburban, and i noticed the front end kinda bounces over bumps and potholes especially idk why. I never experienced this in any car the rear end is good. But its kinda harsh especially over bigger bumps the car really bounces in the front. I have 115k miles on the car idk if its my struts. but anyone else had this issue?

Pics of the truck, please.

OEM struts are good for about 100,000 miles, and it would appear that it is time for you to change yours.

Other members on this Forum that are much more knowledgeable than me on that year truck will chime in.

These vehicles have a naturally soft suspension compared to most vehicles. But if your bounce is excessive and you have never changed your shocks it may be the issue. Especially with your mileage. My Yukon needed new shocks at about 75k miles. Once the new shocks were in, the bounce went away and returned to a very controlled soft float. Also, inspect your coil springs for any signs of cracks or permanent compression. I Hope that helps.

Does it drastically nose dive is you slam the brakes?
