Does Your 1984 Cadillac Seville Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 1984 Cadillac Seville, 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 Seville feels bouncy, pulls 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 1984 Cadillac Seville, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue 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 parts of your Cadillac Seville 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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Cadillac Seville

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1984 Cadillac Seville’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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 Seville’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Cadillac Seville shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1984 Cadillac Seville’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

Questions About 1984 Cadillac Seville Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Seville's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why should my Cadillac Seville get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. 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 Cadillac intended.
  • When does Cadillac Seville power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Seville’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Cadillac's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Cadillac Seville bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your Cadillac Seville 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 Seville tilt forward when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Seville 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 can I tell if the shocks on my Cadillac Seville are bad? Worn Seville shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Seville might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Seville shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
