Is It Time For 2019 Ford Escape Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2019 Ford Escape, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Escape bounces, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2019 Ford Escape in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We will examine 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 root of the problem and, if your Escape suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If parts of your Ford Escape 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 Escape Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2019 Ford Escape suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Escape’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Ford Escape shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2019 Ford Escape suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.

Questions About 2019 Ford Escape Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Escape's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my Ford Escape get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. 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.
  • When does Ford Escape power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Escape’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Ford's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Ford Escape to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Ford Escape 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.
  • What can cause the front end of my Escape to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Escape when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Ford Escape are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Escape feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Escape travels over minor bumps.
