What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in 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 should my Ford Mustang 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 the tires connect with the road how Ford intended.

When does Ford Mustang 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 power steering fluid needs to be filled, we can fill it per Ford's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.

Why is my Ford Mustang bouncing so much?

If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Mustang to bounce more than usual.

Why does my Mustang tilt forward 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.

What are the signs that the shocks on my Ford Mustang need replacing?

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

When To Get 2000 Ford Mustang Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2000 Ford Mustang, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Mustang bounces, drifts 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 2000 Ford Mustang, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. 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 take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems 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 Mustang 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 Mustang Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2000 Ford Mustang’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. 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 getting your 2000 Ford Mustang’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Ford Mustang shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2000 Ford Mustang’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.
