Is It Time For 2018 Ford Fusion Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2018 Ford Fusion, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Fusion bounces, pulls to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2018 Ford Fusion, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Fusion suspension system needs repair, 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 Fusion steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Ford Fusion Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2018 Ford Fusion suspension system. 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 limit vibration and keep your Ford up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2018 Ford Fusion shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Ford Fusion shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2018 Ford Fusion’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2018 Fusion Steering & Suspension Questions

  • 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 let you know when it's time to replace your 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 bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Ford Fusion? 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 come into contact with the road in the way Ford intended.
  • When should I have my Ford Fusion power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Fusion is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Ford service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Ford Fusion bouncing excessively? Excessive bouncing in your Ford Fusion 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 Fusion to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Fusion'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 Fusion shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Fusion feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Fusion travels over minor bumps.
