Does Your 2013 Ford Expedition Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2013 Ford Expedition, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Expedition jolts, pulls 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 2013 Ford Expedition in for suspension and steering service. 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, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems 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 Expedition steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Ford Expedition

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2013 Ford Expedition’s suspension. 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 components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Expedition’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Ford Expedition shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2013 Ford Expedition suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 2013 Ford Expedition Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Ford's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why should my Ford Expedition get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Ford intended.
  • Does my Ford Expedition power steering fluid need to be checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Expedition’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Ford's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Ford Expedition bouncing excessively? 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's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Expedition combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Ford Expedition need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Expedition feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Expedition travels over minor bumps.
