When To Get 1984 Lincoln Continental Suspension Service

When you first drove your 1984 Lincoln Continental, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Continental bounces, drifts 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 1984 Lincoln Continental 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 check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Lincoln Continental suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Lincoln Continental Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1984 Lincoln Continental’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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 1984 Lincoln Continental shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Lincoln Continental shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Continental’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1984 Continental Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Lincoln's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Lincoln Continental? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my Lincoln Continental power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Continental’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Lincoln's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Lincoln Continental bouncing so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Continental to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Continental front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Continental'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 Lincoln Continental shocks? If your Continental shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your Continental might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
