When To Get 2019 Ford Transit-350 HD Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2019 Ford Transit-350 HD, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Transit-350 HD jolts, leans to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2019 Ford Transit-350 HD in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

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, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Transit-350 HD suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Ford Transit-350 HD’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Ford Transit-350 HD

Your 2019 Ford Transit-350 HD’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 reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Transit-350 HD’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Ford Transit-350 HD shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Transit-350 HD’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

Questions About 2019 Ford Transit-350 HD Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Ford's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Ford Transit-350 HD? 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 connect with the road how Ford intended.
  • When does Ford Transit-350 HD power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll top it off per Ford's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Ford Transit-350 HD bouncing excessively? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Transit-350 HD goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • Why does my Transit-350 HD tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Transit-350 HD'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 Transit-350 HD need replacing? Worn Transit-350 HD shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Transit-350 HD might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Transit-350 HD shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
