Does Your 2004 Lincoln Aviator Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2004 Lincoln Aviator, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Aviator bounces, sways to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2004 Lincoln Aviator in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Lincoln Aviator’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Lincoln Aviator Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2004 Lincoln Aviator’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2004 Lincoln Aviator’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 Lincoln Aviator shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2004 Lincoln Aviator’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 2004 Lincoln Aviator Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Aviator's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my Lincoln Aviator get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires connect with the road how Lincoln intended.
  • When should I have my Lincoln Aviator power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Aviator’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Lincoln's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Lincoln Aviator to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Lincoln Aviator 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 Aviator's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Aviator 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 do worn Lincoln Aviator shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Aviator feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Aviator travels over minor bumps.
