Is It Time For 2005 Chrysler Sebring Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2005 Chrysler Sebring, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Sebring bounces, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2005 Chrysler Sebring, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

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, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Sebring suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Chrysler Sebring suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Chrysler Sebring Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2005 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 reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 2005 Chrysler Sebring shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Chrysler Sebring shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2005 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.

2005 Sebring Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Sebring's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your 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 Sebring get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. 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 come into contact with the road in the way Chrysler intended.
  • When should I have my Chrysler Sebring power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Sebring is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Chrysler's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Chrysler Sebring bouncing so much? 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's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Sebring'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 are the signs that the shocks on my Chrysler Sebring need replacing? If your Sebring 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 Sebring might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
