When To Get 2006 Ford Mustang Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2006 Ford Mustang, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Mustang feels bouncy, 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 2006 Ford Mustang, bring it in for steering and suspension services. 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 check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Mustang steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Ford Mustang Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2006 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. 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 2006 Ford Mustang’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Ford Mustang shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2006 Ford Mustang’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2006 Mustang Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Ford's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Ford Mustang? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. 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.
  • Does my Ford Mustang power steering fluid need to be checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Mustang’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Ford's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Ford Mustang to have a bouncy ride? 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 front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Mustang'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 Mustang shocks feel like? 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.
