Does Your 2005 Chrysler Crossfire Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2005 Chrysler Crossfire, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Crossfire jolts, leans to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2005 Chrysler Crossfire in for suspension and steering service. 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, shocks, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If your Chrysler Crossfire’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.

Chrysler Crossfire Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2005 Chrysler Crossfire suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Crossfire’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Chrysler Crossfire shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2005 Chrysler Crossfire’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

2005 Crossfire Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Crossfire's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why should my Chrysler Crossfire get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. 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 should I have my Chrysler Crossfire power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Crossfire’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Chrysler's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Chrysler Crossfire 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 Crossfire to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Crossfire tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Crossfire when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • How do I know if I have worn Chrysler Crossfire shocks? If your Crossfire 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 Crossfire might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
