CAUSES OF AN ACURA RLX SUSPENSION RATTLE IN CANOGA PARK


The air suspension is the part of your Acura RLX responsible for maintaining smooth and comfortable rides.


The air suspension uses inflatable airbags with compressed air to keep your Acura off the ground.


If the air suspension of your Acura RLX develops a fault, it can begin to rattle.


There are three primary reasons responsible for the rattling sound in your Acura RLX.


FAULTY BALL JOINTS


Ball joints form a connection between the wheel hubs and the rest of your vehicle's suspension components.


When the ball joint develops faults, you'll notice that a clunking or knocking sound is coming from the front wheels.


The problem will extend to the steering wheel, and you'll also notice vibrations in that area upon ignition.


FAULTY SWAY BAR LINKS


The sway bar links, also known as an anti-roll bar, helps in the reduction of body rolls when cornering.


Simply put, the sway bar links can keep your car from uncontrollable rollovers when driving around a sharp corner.


With a damaged sway bar, you'll hear rattling & clunking sounds, while driving past road bumps, potholes, and sharp bends.


FAULTY TIE RODS


The tie rods connect the steering rack and steering arm of your Acura RLX.


Without the tie rods, the tires and wheels of your car will lose connection.


The suspension will fail, and your vehicle will lose balance, sway when you drive, and bend to a side when parked.


OTHER SIGNS OF FAULTY SUSPENSION IN ACURA


Your Acura RLX will lean to one side & the compressor will refuse to come on.


The front of your Acura RLX will dip, while the rear will be slightly elevated when you drive your car to a stop.


The brakes of your Acura RLX will become faulty & your vehicle will find it difficult to stop.
