Does Your 2020 Ford EcoSport Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2020 Ford EcoSport, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your EcoSport bounces, sways to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2020 Ford EcoSport, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your EcoSport 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 EcoSport steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Ford EcoSport

Your 2020 Ford EcoSport’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the 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 2020 Ford EcoSport’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Ford EcoSport shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2020 Ford EcoSport suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

2020 EcoSport 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 alert you to the need for new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Ford EcoSport? 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 Ford intended.
  • When should I have my Ford EcoSport power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. 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 is my Ford EcoSport bouncing so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your EcoSport 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 EcoSport's nose dive down 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.
  • What do worn Ford EcoSport shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your EcoSport feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your EcoSport travels over minor bumps.
