When To Get 2006 Chrysler Pacifica Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2006 Chrysler Pacifica, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Pacifica bounces, drifts 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 2006 Chrysler Pacifica in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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, shock dampeners, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Pacifica steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Chrysler Pacifica

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2006 Chrysler Pacifica’s suspension. 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 2006 Chrysler Pacifica shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Chrysler Pacifica shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Pacifica’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

2006 Pacifica Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact 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? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires connect with the road how Chrysler intended.
  • When should I have my Chrysler Pacifica power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Pacifica is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Chrysler's recommendations 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.
  • Why does my Pacifica tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Pacifica 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 Pacifica shocks? If your Pacifica 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 Pacifica might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
