Does Your 2004 Buick LeSabre Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2004 Buick LeSabre, 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. Maybe your LeSabre jolts, drifts 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 2004 Buick LeSabre in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Buick LeSabre 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.

Buick LeSabre Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 2004 Buick LeSabre’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 2004 Buick LeSabre shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Buick LeSabre shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2004 Buick LeSabre’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

2004 LeSabre Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • 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 let you know when it's time to replace your 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 LeSabre? 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 connect with the road how Buick intended.
  • Does my Buick LeSabre power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll follow Buick service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Buick LeSabre to have a bouncy ride? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your LeSabre to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my LeSabre to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your LeSabre 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 LeSabre shocks feel like? Worn LeSabre shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your LeSabre might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your LeSabre shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
