Is It Time For 1989 Ford LTD Crown Victoria Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 1989 Ford LTD Crown Victoria, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your LTD Crown Victoria jolts, sways 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 1989 Ford LTD Crown Victoria, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, 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 LTD Crown Victoria 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 LTD Crown Victoria Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 1989 Ford LTD Crown Victoria’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Ford up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1989 Ford LTD Crown Victoria’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Ford LTD Crown Victoria shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your LTD Crown Victoria’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1989 LTD Crown Victoria Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Ford's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Ford LTD Crown Victoria? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does Ford LTD Crown Victoria power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your LTD Crown Victoria’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Ford's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Ford LTD Crown Victoria bouncing excessively? Excessive bouncing in your Ford LTD Crown Victoria 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 LTD Crown Victoria's nose dive down when I hit 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 LTD Crown Victoria are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your LTD Crown Victoria feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your LTD Crown Victoria travels over minor bumps.
