Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Ford's 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.

Why should my Ford F-350 Super Duty 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 right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires connect with the road how Ford intended.

Does my Ford F-350 Super Duty 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 F-350 Super Duty is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Ford service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.

Why does my Ford F-350 Super Duty bounce so much?

Excessive bouncing in your Ford F-350 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.

What can cause the front end of my F-350 Super Duty to dip forward when I apply the brakes?

The forward dip in the front end of your F-350 Super Duty 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-350 Super Duty shocks feel like?

Worn F-350 Super Duty shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your F-350 Super Duty might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your F-350 Super Duty shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.

When To Get 2024 Ford F-350 Super Duty Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2024 Ford F-350 Super Duty, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your F-350 Super Duty bounces, pulls 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 2024 Ford F-350 Super Duty, bring it in for steering and suspension services. 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, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your F-350 Super Duty 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.

Ford F-350 Super Duty Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2024 Ford F-350 Super Duty suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2024 Ford F-350 Super Duty’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Ford F-350 Super Duty shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2024 Ford F-350 Super Duty’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.
