When To Get 1993 Chevrolet Caprice Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 1993 Chevrolet Caprice, 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 Caprice feels bouncy, leans to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1993 Chevrolet Caprice in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Caprice suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Chevrolet Caprice suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Chevrolet Caprice Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1993 Chevrolet Caprice suspension system. 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1993 Chevrolet Caprice’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Chevrolet Caprice shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Caprice’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1993 Caprice Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Chevrolet's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Chevrolet Caprice? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When should I have my Chevrolet Caprice power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Caprice’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Chevrolet's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Chevrolet Caprice bouncing excessively? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Caprice goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • Why does my Caprice's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Caprice's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • How do I know if I have worn Chevrolet Caprice shocks? Worn Caprice shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Caprice might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Caprice shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
