Does Your 1990 Dodge Shadow Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 1990 Dodge Shadow, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your Shadow feels bouncy, pulls to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 1990 Dodge Shadow, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your Shadow suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Dodge Shadow 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.

Dodge Shadow Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 1990 Dodge Shadow’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. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Dodge up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1990 Dodge Shadow’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Dodge Shadow shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Shadow’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

1990 Shadow Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Dodge's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why should my Dodge Shadow get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Dodge intended.
  • When does Dodge Shadow power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Shadow’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Dodge's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Dodge Shadow to have a bouncy ride? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Shadow to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Shadow's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Shadow'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 can I tell if the shocks on my Dodge Shadow are bad? Worn Shadow shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
