Does Your 2021 Ford Transit-150 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2021 Ford Transit-150, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Transit-150 jolts, leans 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 2021 Ford Transit-150, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. 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 Transit-150 steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Ford Transit-150

Your 2021 Ford Transit-150’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 Transit-150’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Ford Transit-150 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Transit-150’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

2021 Transit-150 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Transit-150's steering and 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 Transit-150 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When should I have my Ford Transit-150 power steering fluid checked? 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’ll follow Ford service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Ford Transit-150 bouncing excessively? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my Transit-150's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Transit-150 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 are the signs that the shocks on my Ford Transit-150 need replacing? Worn Transit-150 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Transit-150 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Transit-150 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
