When To Get 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning, 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 F-150 Lightning bounces, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning, bring it 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’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If parts of your Ford F-150 Lightning suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Ford F-150 Lightning Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Ford F-150 Lightning shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Ford's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated 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.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Ford F-150 Lightning? 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does Ford F-150 Lightning 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 F-150 Lightning’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Ford's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Ford F-150 Lightning bouncing excessively? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my F-150 Lightning's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your F-150 Lightning 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.
  • What do worn Ford F-150 Lightning shocks feel like? Worn F-150 Lightning shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
