Is It Time For 2016 Ford F-150 Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2016 Ford F-150, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your F-150 bounces, sways to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2016 Ford F-150 in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your F-150 suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Ford F-150’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, 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 F-150

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2016 Ford F-150’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 F-150’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Ford F-150 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2016 Ford F-150’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

Questions About 2016 Ford F-150 Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my F-150's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Ford F-150? 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my Ford F-150 power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll follow Ford service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Ford F-150 to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Ford F-150 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.
  • Why does my F-150's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your F-150's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • What do worn Ford F-150 shocks feel like? If your F-150 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 F-150 might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
