Does Your 2015 Ford Flex Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2015 Ford Flex, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Flex bounces, leans to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2015 Ford Flex in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Flex suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Flex steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Ford Flex Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2015 Ford Flex’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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. But there's no set schedule for 2015 Ford Flex shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Ford Flex shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Flex’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2015 Ford Flex Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Ford's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Why should my Ford Flex get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. 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.
  • When does Ford Flex power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Flex 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 Flex bounce so much? 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 Flex's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Flex 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.
  • How do I know if I have worn Ford Flex shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Flex feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Flex travels over minor bumps.
