Does Your 1985 Plymouth Voyager Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 1985 Plymouth Voyager, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your Voyager feels bouncy, drifts to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1985 Plymouth Voyager in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Plymouth Voyager 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 Plymouth Voyager

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1985 Plymouth Voyager’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 1985 Plymouth Voyager shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Plymouth Voyager shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Voyager’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1985 Voyager Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Voyager's steering and 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Plymouth Voyager? 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 connect with the road how Plymouth intended.
  • When does Plymouth Voyager 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 Voyager’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Plymouth's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Plymouth Voyager bouncing excessively? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Voyager 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.
  • What can cause the front end of my Voyager to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Voyager 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 Plymouth Voyager shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Voyager feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Voyager travels over minor bumps.
