Does Your 2008 Lincoln Navigator Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2008 Lincoln Navigator, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Navigator jolts, leans 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 2008 Lincoln Navigator in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Navigator suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Navigator steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Lincoln Navigator Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2008 Lincoln Navigator’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 components work together to limit vibration and keep your Lincoln up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2008 Lincoln Navigator’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Lincoln Navigator shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2008 Lincoln Navigator’s 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.

2008 Navigator Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Navigator's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires 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 Navigator get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Lincoln intended.
  • When should I have my Lincoln Navigator power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Navigator is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Lincoln service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Lincoln Navigator to have a bouncy ride? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Navigator to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Navigator front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Navigator'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 Navigator are bad? Worn Navigator shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
