When To Get 1988 Chrysler Fifth Avenue Suspension Service

When you first bought your 1988 Chrysler Fifth Avenue, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your Fifth Avenue feels bouncy, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 1988 Chrysler Fifth Avenue, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue 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 Fifth Avenue steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Chrysler Fifth Avenue Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 1988 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. But there's no set schedule for 1988 Chrysler Fifth Avenue shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Chrysler Fifth Avenue shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1988 Chrysler Fifth Avenue suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 1988 Chrysler Fifth Avenue Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Chrysler's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Chrysler Fifth Avenue? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Chrysler intended.
  • When should I have my Chrysler Fifth Avenue power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Fifth Avenue is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Chrysler's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Chrysler Fifth Avenue bouncing so much? 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 Fifth Avenue front end dip forward when I brake? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • How do I know if I have worn Chrysler Fifth Avenue shocks? If your Fifth Avenue 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 Fifth Avenue might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
