Is It Time For 1999 Ford Expedition Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 1999 Ford Expedition, 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 Expedition jolts, sways 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 1999 Ford Expedition, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

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, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Expedition 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 Ford Expedition’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Ford Expedition Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1999 Ford Expedition’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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 getting your 1999 Ford Expedition’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Ford Expedition shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1999 Ford Expedition suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

Questions About 1999 Ford Expedition Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact 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. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Ford Expedition? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my Ford Expedition power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Expedition’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Ford's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Ford Expedition bouncing so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Expedition to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Expedition tilt forward 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 Expedition shocks feel like? If your Expedition shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your Expedition might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
