Is It Time For 1995 Buick Skylark Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 1995 Buick Skylark, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your Skylark feels bouncy, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 1995 Buick Skylark, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem 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 Skylark steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Buick Skylark Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1995 Buick Skylark’s suspension. 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 components work together to limit vibration and keep your Buick up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 1995 Buick Skylark shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Buick Skylark shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Skylark’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1995 Skylark Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Buick's 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 Skylark? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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.
  • Does my Buick Skylark power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Skylark is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Buick's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Buick Skylark bouncing so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Skylark to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Skylark front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your Skylark 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 Skylark are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Skylark feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Skylark travels over minor bumps.
