When To Get 2001 Chrysler Sebring Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2001 Chrysler Sebring, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Sebring feels bouncy, drifts 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 2001 Chrysler Sebring, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, 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 Sebring steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Chrysler Sebring Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2001 Chrysler Sebring’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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 getting your 2001 Chrysler Sebring’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Chrysler Sebring shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2001 Chrysler Sebring suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.

Questions About 2001 Chrysler Sebring Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Chrysler's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why should my Chrysler Sebring get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. 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 connect with the road how Chrysler intended.
  • When does Chrysler Sebring 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.
  • What can cause my Chrysler Sebring to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Chrysler Sebring might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • Why does my Sebring front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Sebring 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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Chrysler Sebring are bad? Worn Sebring shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Sebring might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Sebring shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
