When To Get 1999 Buick LeSabre Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 1999 Buick LeSabre, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your LeSabre feels bouncy, leans 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 1999 Buick LeSabre, 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your LeSabre steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Buick LeSabre Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 1999 Buick LeSabre’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1999 Buick LeSabre’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Buick LeSabre shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1999 Buick LeSabre suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1999 LeSabre Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my LeSabre's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also help you notice when you need 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.
  • Why should my Buick LeSabre get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. 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 LeSabre power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your LeSabre is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Buick's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Buick LeSabre bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your LeSabre 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 LeSabre tilt forward when I hit the brakes? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Buick LeSabre need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your LeSabre feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your LeSabre travels over minor bumps.
