Is It Time For 2009 Dodge Challenger Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2009 Dodge Challenger, 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 Challenger feels bouncy, 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 2009 Dodge Challenger 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’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your Challenger suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Challenger steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Dodge Challenger Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2009 Dodge Challenger’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2009 Dodge Challenger shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Dodge Challenger shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Challenger’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2009 Challenger Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Dodge's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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 Dodge Challenger 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. 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 Dodge intended.
  • When should I have my Dodge Challenger power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Challenger is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Dodge's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Dodge Challenger bounce so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Challenger to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Challenger'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.
  • What do worn Dodge Challenger shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Challenger feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Challenger travels over minor bumps.
