Does Your 1996 Lincoln Town Car Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 1996 Lincoln Town Car, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Town Car bounces, leans to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1996 Lincoln Town Car in for steering and suspension repairs. 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, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your Town Car suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Lincoln Town Car suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Lincoln Town Car

Your 1996 Lincoln Town Car’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1996 Lincoln Town Car’s shocks and struts replaced 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 Town Car shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1996 Lincoln Town Car 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.

Questions About 1996 Lincoln Town Car Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Town Car's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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 Town Car? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires connect with the road how Lincoln intended.
  • Does my Lincoln Town Car 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 Town Car’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Lincoln's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Lincoln Town Car 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 Town Car to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my Town Car to dip forward when I apply 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 do I know if I have worn Lincoln Town Car shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Town Car feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Town Car travels over minor bumps.
