Does Your 1984 Chrysler Fifth Avenue Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 1984 Chrysler Fifth Avenue, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Fifth Avenue jolts, pulls 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 1984 Chrysler Fifth Avenue in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Chrysler Fifth Avenue suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Chrysler Fifth Avenue Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 1984 Chrysler Fifth Avenue’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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 Fifth Avenue’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Chrysler Fifth Avenue shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1984 Chrysler Fifth Avenue’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1984 Fifth Avenue Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Fifth Avenue's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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 Fifth Avenue get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Chrysler intended.
  • Does my Chrysler Fifth Avenue power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Fifth Avenue is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Chrysler's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Chrysler Fifth Avenue bouncing excessively? Excessive bouncing in your Chrysler Fifth Avenue might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • Why does my Fifth Avenue tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Fifth Avenue'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.
  • What do worn Chrysler Fifth Avenue shocks feel like? Worn Fifth Avenue 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.
