When To Get 1993 Geo Metro Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 1993 Geo Metro, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Metro feels bouncy, sways to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 1993 Geo Metro, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

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, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Geo Metro’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Geo Metro Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 1993 Geo 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 1993 Geo Metro shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Geo Metro shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1993 Geo Metro’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

1993 Metro Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Geo's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Geo Metro? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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 Geo 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 Geo's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Geo Metro bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your Geo Metro 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.
  • What can cause the front end of my Metro to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Metro'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 do worn Geo Metro shocks feel like? Worn Metro 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.
