When To Get 2000 Lincoln LS Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 2000 Lincoln LS, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your LS jolts, leans 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 2000 Lincoln LS, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Lincoln LS 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.

Lincoln LS Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2000 Lincoln LS suspension system. 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 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 LS’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Lincoln LS shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your LS’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.

Questions About 2000 Lincoln LS Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Lincoln's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Lincoln LS? 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 LS 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 LS is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Lincoln's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Lincoln LS bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your Lincoln LS 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 LS's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Lincoln LS are bad? Worn LS shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your LS might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your LS shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
