Is It Time For 2000 Dodge Neon Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2000 Dodge Neon, 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 Neon feels bouncy, pulls to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2000 Dodge Neon, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Neon suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Dodge Neon’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Dodge Neon Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2000 Dodge Neon suspension system. 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 reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2000 Dodge Neon’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Dodge Neon shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Neon’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2000 Neon Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • 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 let you know when it's time to replace your tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Dodge Neon? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Dodge intended.
  • When does Dodge Neon 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 Neon’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Dodge's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Dodge Neon to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Neon goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • Why does my Neon tilt forward 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 Dodge Neon shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Neon feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Neon travels over minor bumps.
