Does Your 2015 Ford Transit Connect Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2015 Ford Transit Connect, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Transit Connect jolts, pulls to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2015 Ford Transit Connect 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 absorbers, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Ford Transit Connect’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Ford Transit Connect Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2015 Ford Transit Connect’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 limit vibration and keep your Ford up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2015 Ford Transit Connect shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Ford Transit Connect shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Transit Connect’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

Questions About 2015 Ford Transit Connect Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Transit Connect's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Ford Transit Connect? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires connect with the road how Ford intended.
  • When does Ford Transit Connect 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 Transit Connect is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Ford's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Ford Transit Connect bouncing so much? 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 Connect tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Transit Connect'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.
  • How do I know if I have worn Ford Transit Connect shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Transit Connect feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Transit Connect travels over minor bumps.
