Is It Time For 1984 Chrysler New Yorker Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 1984 Chrysler New Yorker, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your New Yorker bounces, sways to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1984 Chrysler New Yorker in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel hub 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 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 New Yorker 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 New Yorker Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 1984 Chrysler New Yorker’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 1984 Chrysler New Yorker shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Chrysler New Yorker shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1984 Chrysler New Yorker suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 1984 Chrysler New Yorker Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Chrysler's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need 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 should my Chrysler New Yorker 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. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires connect with the road how Chrysler intended.
  • When should I have my Chrysler New Yorker power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your New Yorker is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Chrysler service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Chrysler New Yorker bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your New Yorker goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • Why does my New Yorker front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your New Yorker'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 New Yorker shocks feel like? Worn New Yorker 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.
