Does Your 1988 Chrysler Town & Country Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 1988 Chrysler Town & Country, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Town & Country feels bouncy, leans 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 1988 Chrysler Town & Country in for steering and suspension services. 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, shock absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue 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.

Chrysler Town & Country Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1988 Chrysler Town & Country suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Chrysler up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 1988 Chrysler Town & Country 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 indicators of worn Chrysler Town & Country shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1988 Chrysler Town & Country suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

1988 Town & Country Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Chrysler's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for 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 Town & Country 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. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires connect with the road how Chrysler intended.
  • 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 power steering fluid needs to be filled, we can fill it per Chrysler's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Chrysler Town & Country bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your Chrysler Town & Country 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 Town & Country's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • How do I know if I have worn Chrysler Town & Country shocks? 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.
