Is It Time For 2011 Mercury Grand Marquis Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2011 Mercury Grand Marquis, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Grand Marquis feels bouncy, leans to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2011 Mercury Grand Marquis, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If parts of your Mercury Grand Marquis suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Mercury Grand Marquis Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 2011 Mercury Grand Marquis’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. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2011 Mercury Grand Marquis shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, 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 2011 Mercury Grand Marquis’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

2011 Grand Marquis Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Grand Marquis'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 bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Mercury Grand Marquis? 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 Mercury intended.
  • Does my Mercury Grand Marquis power steering fluid need to be checked? 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.
  • Why is my Mercury Grand Marquis bouncing so much? Excessive bouncing in your Mercury Grand Marquis might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • What can cause the front end of my Grand Marquis to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Grand Marquis 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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Mercury Grand Marquis are bad? 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.
