When To Get 1983 Chrysler Town & Country Suspension Service

When you first drove your 1983 Chrysler Town & Country, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your Town & Country feels bouncy, leans 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 1983 Chrysler Town & Country 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, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If parts of your Chrysler Town & Country 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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Chrysler Town & Country

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1983 Chrysler Town & Country’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the 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 1983 Chrysler Town & Country shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Chrysler Town & Country shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1983 Chrysler Town & Country’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

1983 Town & Country Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Chrysler's 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 bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Chrysler Town & Country? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When should I have my Chrysler Town & Country power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Town & Country is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Chrysler's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Chrysler Town & Country bouncing excessively? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Town & Country 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 Town & Country tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Town & Country 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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Chrysler Town & Country need replacing? If your Town & Country 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 Town & Country might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
