Is It Time For 2016 Ford F-250 Super Duty Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2016 Ford F-250 Super Duty, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your F-250 Super Duty bounces, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2016 Ford F-250 Super Duty in for suspension and steering service. 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, shock absorbers, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Ford F-250 Super Duty’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Ford F-250 Super Duty Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2016 Ford F-250 Super Duty’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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-250 Super Duty’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Ford F-250 Super Duty shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your F-250 Super Duty’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2016 Ford F-250 Super Duty Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Ford's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also alert you to the need for new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Ford F-250 Super Duty? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. 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 F-250 Super Duty 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 F-250 Super Duty is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Ford service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Ford F-250 Super Duty to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Ford F-250 Super Duty 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-250 Super Duty front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your F-250 Super Duty 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 F-250 Super Duty need replacing? If your F-250 Super Duty 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-250 Super Duty might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
