Does Your 2000 Buick Century Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 2000 Buick Century, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Century bounces, pulls to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2000 Buick Century 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 absorbers, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, axle 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 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 Buick Century’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Buick Century Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 2000 Buick Century’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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 getting your 2000 Buick Century’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators 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 2000 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. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • 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.
  • Does my Buick Century power steering fluid need to be checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Century is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Buick's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Buick Century bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your Buick Century might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • Why does my Century tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Century 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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Buick Century are bad? Worn Century shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Century might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Century shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
