Is It Time For 1990 Acura Legend Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 1990 Acura Legend, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Legend bounces, 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 1990 Acura Legend in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If your Acura Legend’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.

Acura Legend Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1990 Acura Legend’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. Struts support the structure of the suspension and 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 1990 Acura Legend shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Acura Legend shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1990 Acura Legend suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.

1990 Legend Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Acura's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your 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 Acura Legend get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. 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 Acura intended.
  • When should I have my Acura Legend power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Legend is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Acura's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Acura Legend to have a bouncy ride? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my Legend front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Legend 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.
  • How do I know if I have worn Acura Legend shocks? If your Legend 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 Legend might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
