Does Your 1999 Chevrolet Metro Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 1999 Chevrolet Metro, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Metro feels bouncy, pulls to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1999 Chevrolet Metro in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

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, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Metro suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Chevrolet Metro 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.

Chevrolet Metro Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 1999 Chevrolet Metro’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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 1999 Chevrolet Metro shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Chevrolet Metro shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Metro’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.

1999 Metro Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Metro's steering and 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 Metro? 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 connect with the road how Chevrolet intended.
  • Does my Chevrolet Metro 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 Metro is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Chevrolet's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Chevrolet Metro bounce so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Metro to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Metro front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your Metro 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 are the signs that the shocks on my Chevrolet Metro need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Metro feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Metro travels over minor bumps.
