When To Get 2015 Ford Transit-350 Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2015 Ford Transit-350, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Transit-350 bounces, 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 2015 Ford Transit-350 in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Transit-350 suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Ford Transit-350 suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Ford Transit-350

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2015 Ford Transit-350’s suspension. 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2015 Ford Transit-350’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Ford Transit-350 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2015 Ford Transit-350 suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2015 Transit-350 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Ford's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your 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.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Ford Transit-350? 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.
  • Does my Ford Transit-350 power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Transit-350 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Ford's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Ford Transit-350 to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Ford Transit-350 might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • Why does my Transit-350 tilt forward when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Transit-350 combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • How do I know if I have worn Ford Transit-350 shocks? If your Transit-350 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 Transit-350 might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
