Does Your 1984 Mercury Grand Marquis Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 1984 Mercury Grand Marquis, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Grand Marquis bounces, leans to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1984 Mercury Grand Marquis 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Grand Marquis suspension system needs repair, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If your Mercury Grand Marquis’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.

Mercury Grand Marquis Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1984 Mercury Grand Marquis suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Struts support the structure of the suspension and 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 1984 Mercury Grand Marquis shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Mercury Grand Marquis shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1984 Mercury Grand Marquis’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 1984 Mercury Grand Marquis Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Mercury's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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 Mercury Grand Marquis? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Mercury intended.
  • When does Mercury Grand Marquis power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Grand Marquis’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Mercury's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Mercury Grand Marquis to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Grand Marquis goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • Why does my Grand Marquis's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Grand Marquis combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • How do I know if I have worn Mercury Grand Marquis shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Grand Marquis feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Grand Marquis travels over minor bumps.
