When To Get 2021 Lincoln Aviator Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2021 Lincoln Aviator, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Aviator jolts, pulls to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2021 Lincoln Aviator, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

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, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Aviator suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If parts of your Lincoln Aviator suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Lincoln Aviator

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2021 Lincoln Aviator suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Aviator’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Lincoln Aviator shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2021 Lincoln Aviator suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

2021 Aviator Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Lincoln's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, 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 Lincoln Aviator? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Lincoln intended.
  • Does my Lincoln Aviator power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Aviator’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Lincoln service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Lincoln Aviator bounce so much? 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 tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Aviator'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 can I tell if the shocks on my Lincoln Aviator are bad? 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.
