Does Your 2009 Chrysler Aspen Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2009 Chrysler Aspen, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Aspen bounces, leans 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 2009 Chrysler Aspen in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Aspen steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Chrysler Aspen Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2009 Chrysler Aspen suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Chrysler up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Aspen’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Chrysler Aspen shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2009 Chrysler Aspen suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

Questions About 2009 Chrysler Aspen Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Chrysler's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Chrysler Aspen? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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 Chrysler intended.
  • When should I have my Chrysler Aspen power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Aspen’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Chrysler service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Chrysler Aspen to have a bouncy ride? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my Aspen's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Aspen's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Chrysler Aspen are bad? Worn Aspen shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
