Does Your 2002 Acura NSX Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2002 Acura NSX, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your NSX jolts, drifts 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 2002 Acura NSX, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your NSX suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Acura NSX 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.

Acura NSX Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2002 Acura NSX’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Acura up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2002 Acura NSX’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Acura NSX shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2002 Acura NSX suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

Questions About 2002 Acura NSX Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Acura's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Acura NSX? 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 the tires come into contact with the road in the way Acura intended.
  • When does Acura NSX power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your NSX’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Acura's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Acura NSX bouncing excessively? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • What can cause the front end of my NSX to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your NSX 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 are the signs that the shocks on my Acura NSX need replacing? If your NSX 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 NSX might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
