Is It Time For 2007 Ford Five Hundred Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 2007 Ford Five Hundred, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your Five Hundred feels bouncy, drifts to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2007 Ford Five Hundred in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, 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 your Ford Five Hundred’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Ford Five Hundred Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2007 Ford Five Hundred’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 2007 Ford Five Hundred shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Ford Five Hundred shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Five Hundred’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2007 Ford Five Hundred Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Five Hundred's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need new 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 Five Hundred? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires connect with the road how Ford intended.
  • When should I have my Ford Five Hundred power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Five Hundred is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Ford's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Ford Five Hundred bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Five Hundred to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my Five Hundred to dip forward when I apply the brakes? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Ford Five Hundred are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Five Hundred feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Five Hundred travels over minor bumps.
