When To Get 1991 Cadillac Eldorado Suspension Service

When you first bought your 1991 Cadillac Eldorado, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your Eldorado feels bouncy, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 1991 Cadillac Eldorado, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, 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 Eldorado steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Cadillac Eldorado Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1991 Cadillac Eldorado suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Eldorado’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Cadillac Eldorado shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1991 Cadillac Eldorado suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1991 Eldorado Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Cadillac's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Cadillac Eldorado? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major 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 Cadillac intended.
  • When should I have my Cadillac Eldorado power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Eldorado is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Cadillac's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Cadillac Eldorado bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your Cadillac Eldorado 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 Eldorado's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Eldorado 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.
  • What do worn Cadillac Eldorado shocks feel like? Worn Eldorado shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
