Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my ProMaster 3500'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 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 Ram ProMaster 3500?

Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.

When should I have my Ram ProMaster 3500 power steering fluid checked?

Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your ProMaster 3500’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Ram's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.

What can cause my Ram ProMaster 3500 to have a bouncy ride?

If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your ProMaster 3500 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 ProMaster 3500's nose dive down when I hit the brakes?

As you brake, the forward momentum of your ProMaster 3500 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.

What are the signs that the shocks on my Ram ProMaster 3500 need replacing?

If your ProMaster 3500 shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your ProMaster 3500 might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.

When To Get 2020 Ram ProMaster 3500 Suspension Service

When you first bought your 2020 Ram ProMaster 3500, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your ProMaster 3500 bounces, pulls 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 2020 Ram ProMaster 3500, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Ram ProMaster 3500’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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Ram ProMaster 3500

Your 2020 Ram ProMaster 3500’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. 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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your ProMaster 3500’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 can all point to issues with your Ram ProMaster 3500 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2020 Ram ProMaster 3500 suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.
