Is It Time For 1992 Dodge Shadow Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 1992 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, drifts 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 Dodge Shadow in for suspension and steering service. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Shadow 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 Shadow steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Dodge Shadow Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1992 Dodge Shadow’s suspension. 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 components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1992 Dodge Shadow’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Dodge Shadow shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1992 Dodge Shadow suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1992 Shadow Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Shadow's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Dodge Shadow? 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.
  • When should I have my Dodge Shadow power steering fluid checked? 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 smoothly.
  • Why is my Dodge Shadow bouncing excessively? 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 tilt forward when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Shadow combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • What do worn Dodge Shadow shocks feel like? Worn Shadow shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Shadow might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Shadow shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
