Does Your 1993 Buick Century Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 1993 Buick Century, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Century feels bouncy, leans to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1993 Buick Century in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Buick Century’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Buick Century

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1993 Buick Century suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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 1993 Buick Century shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Buick Century shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Century’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 1993 Buick Century Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Buick's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Buick Century? 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 Buick Century power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Century’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Buick service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Buick Century to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Century 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 Century's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Century 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 do worn Buick Century shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Century feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Century travels over minor bumps.
