Is It Time For 1998 Chrysler Sebring Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 1998 Chrysler Sebring, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Sebring jolts, 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 1998 Chrysler Sebring, bring it 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your Sebring suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Sebring 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 Sebring Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1998 Chrysler Sebring suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Struts support the structure of the suspension and 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 getting your 1998 Chrysler Sebring’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Chrysler Sebring shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1998 Chrysler Sebring suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1998 Sebring Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Chrysler's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Chrysler Sebring? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. 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.
  • Does my Chrysler Sebring power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll follow Chrysler service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Chrysler Sebring bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Sebring to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Sebring front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your Sebring 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 can I tell if the shocks on my Chrysler Sebring are bad? Worn Sebring 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.
