Is It Time For 1992 Chrysler Imperial Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 1992 Chrysler Imperial, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your Imperial 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 1992 Chrysler Imperial in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Imperial suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Chrysler Imperial’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Chrysler Imperial Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1992 Chrysler Imperial 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 limit vibration and keep your Chrysler up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1992 Chrysler Imperial’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Chrysler Imperial shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1992 Chrysler Imperial’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1992 Imperial Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Chrysler's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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.
  • Why should my Chrysler Imperial 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 right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my Chrysler Imperial 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 Imperial’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Chrysler's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Chrysler Imperial to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Imperial 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.
  • What can cause the front end of my Imperial to dip forward when I apply the brakes? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Chrysler Imperial need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Imperial feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Imperial travels over minor bumps.
