When To Get 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Grand Caravan feels bouncy, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Grand Caravan suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Dodge Grand Caravan’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Dodge Grand Caravan Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan’s suspension. 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 reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Grand Caravan’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Dodge Grand Caravan shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Grand Caravan’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Grand Caravan's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my Dodge Grand Caravan 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my Dodge Grand Caravan power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Grand Caravan is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Dodge's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Dodge Grand Caravan bouncing excessively? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • What can cause the front end of my Grand Caravan to dip forward when I apply 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 can I tell if the shocks on my Dodge Grand Caravan are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Grand Caravan feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Grand Caravan travels over minor bumps.
