When To Get 2006 Mitsubishi Montero Suspension Service

When you first drove your 2006 Mitsubishi Montero, 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 Montero feels bouncy, sways 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 2006 Mitsubishi Montero in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Montero suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Montero 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.

Mitsubishi Montero Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2006 Mitsubishi Montero’s suspension. 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 components work together to limit vibration and keep your Mitsubishi up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2006 Mitsubishi Montero shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Mitsubishi Montero shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2006 Mitsubishi Montero suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

Questions About 2006 Mitsubishi Montero Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Mitsubishi's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, 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 should my Mitsubishi Montero get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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 Mitsubishi intended.
  • When should I have my Mitsubishi Montero power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll top it off per Mitsubishi's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Mitsubishi Montero bouncing so much? Excessive bouncing in your Mitsubishi Montero 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 Montero to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Montero 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 Mitsubishi Montero are bad? Worn Montero shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Montero might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Montero shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
