Does Your 1990 Lincoln Mark VII Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 1990 Lincoln Mark VII, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Mark VII bounces, sways 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 1990 Lincoln Mark VII, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Mark VII suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Lincoln Mark VII’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Lincoln Mark VII Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 1990 Lincoln Mark VII’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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 Mark VII’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Lincoln Mark VII shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Mark VII’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

1990 Mark VII Steering & Suspension Questions

  • 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. 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 Mark VII? 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.
  • When should I have my Lincoln Mark VII power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll follow Lincoln service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Lincoln Mark VII bounce so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Mark VII to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Mark VII'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 Mark VII are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Mark VII feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Mark VII travels over minor bumps.
