Is It Time For 1994 Ford Aerostar Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 1994 Ford Aerostar, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Aerostar jolts, leans 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 1994 Ford Aerostar in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Aerostar steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Ford Aerostar

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1994 Ford Aerostar’s suspension. 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 1994 Ford Aerostar shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Ford Aerostar shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Aerostar’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1994 Aerostar Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Ford'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 Ford Aerostar? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires connect with the road how Ford intended.
  • Does my Ford Aerostar power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Aerostar is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Ford's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Ford Aerostar to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Ford Aerostar 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 Aerostar front end dip forward when I brake? 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 Ford Aerostar shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Aerostar feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Aerostar travels over minor bumps.
