Road Test Over Bumps

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Lincoln MKX and 2014 Ford Edge. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

To carry out this test, proceed as follows:

Drive the vehicle over a bump or rough surface one wheel at a time to determine if the noise is coming from the front or the back and the left or the right side of the vehicle.
If the source of the symptom has been identified as a result of this test, proceed to the appropriate information for further diagnosis and repair. If the source has not been identified, continue with the road test.
