When To Get 2016 Ford Mustang Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2016 Ford Mustang, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Mustang bounces, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2016 Ford Mustang, 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’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Mustang suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Ford Mustang suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Ford Mustang Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2016 Ford Mustang’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Mustang’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Ford Mustang shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Mustang’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.

2016 Mustang Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Mustang's steering and 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.
  • 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 right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Ford intended.
  • When does Ford Mustang power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Mustang’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Ford's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Ford Mustang to have a bouncy ride? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • What can cause the front end of my Mustang to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Mustang when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • What do worn Ford Mustang shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Mustang feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Mustang travels over minor bumps.
