Is It Time For 2010 Ford Taurus Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2010 Ford Taurus, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Taurus feels bouncy, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2010 Ford Taurus 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Ford Taurus suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Ford Taurus Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2010 Ford Taurus’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. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2010 Ford Taurus’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Ford Taurus shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2010 Ford Taurus suspension 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.

2010 Taurus Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in 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 should my Ford Taurus get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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 Taurus 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 Taurus is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Ford service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Ford Taurus 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 Taurus to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Taurus's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Taurus'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 are the signs that the shocks on my Ford Taurus need replacing? If your Taurus shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your Taurus might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
