When To Get 1999 Jaguar Vanden Plas Suspension Service

When you first bought your 1999 Jaguar Vanden Plas, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your Vanden Plas feels bouncy, leans to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1999 Jaguar Vanden Plas 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, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel 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 explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Vanden Plas steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Jaguar Vanden Plas Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1999 Jaguar Vanden Plas suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Vanden Plas’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Jaguar Vanden Plas shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1999 Jaguar Vanden Plas’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

Questions About 1999 Jaguar Vanden Plas Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Vanden Plas's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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 Jaguar Vanden Plas get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does Jaguar Vanden Plas power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Vanden Plas is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Jaguar service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Jaguar Vanden Plas to have a bouncy ride? 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 Vanden Plas tilt forward when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Vanden Plas 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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Jaguar Vanden Plas need replacing? Worn Vanden Plas shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
