When To Get 2022 Ford Transit Connect Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2022 Ford Transit Connect, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Transit Connect bounces, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2022 Ford Transit Connect, bring it in for suspension and steering service. 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 take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Transit Connect suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Transit Connect 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.

Ford Transit Connect Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2022 Ford Transit Connect’s suspension. 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 reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 2022 Ford Transit Connect shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Ford Transit Connect shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2022 Ford Transit Connect’s 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.

2022 Transit Connect Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Ford's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my Ford Transit Connect 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 correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Ford intended.
  • When should I have my Ford Transit Connect power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Transit Connect is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Ford service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Ford Transit Connect bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Transit Connect 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 Connect front end dip forward when I brake? 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.
