Does Your 2006 Lincoln Zephyr Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2006 Lincoln Zephyr, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Zephyr feels bouncy, 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 2006 Lincoln Zephyr, bring it in for steering and suspension services. 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, shocks, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your Zephyr suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Zephyr steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Lincoln Zephyr Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2006 Lincoln Zephyr’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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Zephyr’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 indicators of worn Lincoln Zephyr shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2006 Lincoln Zephyr’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2006 Lincoln Zephyr Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Zephyr's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires 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 Zephyr? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. 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 does Lincoln Zephyr power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Zephyr’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Lincoln's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Lincoln Zephyr 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 Zephyr to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Zephyr's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Zephyr when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • What do worn Lincoln Zephyr shocks feel like? Worn Zephyr 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.
