Is It Time For 2006 Dodge Sprinter 2500 Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 2006 Dodge Sprinter 2500, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Sprinter 2500 jolts, pulls to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2006 Dodge Sprinter 2500, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. 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’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Sprinter 2500 suspension system needs repair, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If parts of your Dodge Sprinter 2500 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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Dodge Sprinter 2500

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2006 Dodge Sprinter 2500 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2006 Dodge Sprinter 2500’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Dodge Sprinter 2500 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Sprinter 2500’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.

2006 Sprinter 2500 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Sprinter 2500's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Dodge Sprinter 2500? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Dodge intended.
  • When does Dodge Sprinter 2500 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 Sprinter 2500’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Dodge service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Dodge Sprinter 2500 bouncing so much? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my Sprinter 2500's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Sprinter 2500 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.
  • How do I know if I have worn Dodge Sprinter 2500 shocks? Worn Sprinter 2500 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Sprinter 2500 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Sprinter 2500 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
