Does Your 1999 Buick Park Avenue Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 1999 Buick Park Avenue, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your Park Avenue feels bouncy, pulls to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1999 Buick Park Avenue in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Buick Park Avenue’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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Buick Park Avenue

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1999 Buick Park Avenue’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Park Avenue’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Buick Park Avenue shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Park Avenue’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1999 Park Avenue Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Park Avenue's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Buick Park Avenue? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Buick intended.
  • When should I have my Buick Park Avenue power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Park Avenue’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Buick service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Buick Park Avenue bounce so much? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my Park Avenue tilt forward when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Park Avenue 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.
  • How do I know if I have worn Buick Park Avenue shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Park Avenue feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Park Avenue travels over minor bumps.
