When To Get 2001 Ford Crown Victoria Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2001 Ford Crown Victoria, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Crown Victoria bounces, pulls to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2001 Ford Crown Victoria 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 take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Ford Crown Victoria suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Ford Crown Victoria Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2001 Ford Crown Victoria 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 2001 Ford Crown Victoria shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Ford Crown Victoria shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2001 Ford Crown Victoria’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 2001 Ford Crown Victoria Steering & Suspension

  • 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 Crown Victoria? 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 the tires come into contact with the road in the way Ford intended.
  • When does Ford Crown Victoria power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll top it off per Ford's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Ford Crown Victoria bounce so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Crown Victoria to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Crown Victoria's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Crown Victoria's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Ford Crown Victoria need replacing? Worn Crown Victoria shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Crown Victoria might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Crown Victoria shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
