Is It Time For 1987 Chrysler Town & Country Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 1987 Chrysler Town & Country, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Town & Country jolts, sways to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1987 Chrysler Town & Country in for steering and suspension repairs. 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’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Town & Country 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 Town & Country Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1987 Chrysler Town & Country’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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 1987 Chrysler Town & Country shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Chrysler Town & Country shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Town & Country’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1987 Town & Country Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • 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 let you know when it's time to replace your tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important 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 does Chrysler Town & Country power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Town & Country is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Chrysler's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Chrysler Town & Country to have a bouncy ride? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Town & Country to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my Town & Country to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Town & Country'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 do worn Chrysler Town & Country shocks feel like? Worn Town & Country shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Town & Country might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Town & Country shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
