What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Chrysler's suspension?

Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for 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 Pacifica?

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 come into contact with the road in the way Chrysler intended.

When does Chrysler Pacifica power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed?

Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll top it off per Chrysler's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.

Why is my Chrysler Pacifica bouncing excessively?

If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Pacifica 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.

What can cause the front end of my Pacifica to dip forward when I apply the brakes?

As you brake, the forward momentum of your Pacifica combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.

What do worn Chrysler Pacifica shocks feel like?

Worn Pacifica shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Pacifica might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Pacifica shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.

When To Get 2005 Chrysler Pacifica Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2005 Chrysler Pacifica, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Pacifica jolts, sways to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2005 Chrysler Pacifica, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. 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’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Pacifica suspension system needs repair, 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 Pacifica’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Chrysler Pacifica Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2005 Chrysler Pacifica suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Struts support the structure of the suspension and 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 2005 Chrysler Pacifica shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Chrysler Pacifica shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2005 Chrysler Pacifica suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.
