Is It Time For 1988 Chevrolet Celebrity Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 1988 Chevrolet Celebrity, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Celebrity bounces, pulls to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1988 Chevrolet Celebrity in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel hub 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 all of your options and the potential cost. If your Chevrolet Celebrity’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Chevrolet Celebrity Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1988 Chevrolet Celebrity suspension system. 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 components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 1988 Chevrolet Celebrity shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Chevrolet Celebrity shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1988 Chevrolet Celebrity suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

1988 Celebrity Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Celebrity's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also alert you to the need for 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Chevrolet Celebrity? 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 the tires connect with the road how Chevrolet intended.
  • When does Chevrolet Celebrity power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Celebrity is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Chevrolet service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Chevrolet Celebrity to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Chevrolet Celebrity 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 Celebrity front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Celebrity'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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Chevrolet Celebrity need replacing? Worn Celebrity shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Celebrity might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Celebrity shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
