When To Get 2009 Dodge Charger Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2009 Dodge Charger, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Charger bounces, sways to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2009 Dodge Charger, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. 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 Dodge Charger suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Dodge Charger Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2009 Dodge Charger’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 limit vibration and keep your Dodge up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2009 Dodge Charger shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Dodge Charger shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2009 Dodge Charger’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

Questions About 2009 Dodge Charger Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Dodge's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my Dodge Charger get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does Dodge Charger 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 Charger’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Dodge's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Dodge Charger bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your Dodge Charger 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 Charger tilt forward when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Charger combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • What do worn Dodge Charger shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Charger feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Charger travels over minor bumps.
