Does Your 1990 Honda Prelude Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 1990 Honda Prelude, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Prelude jolts, leans 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 1990 Honda Prelude, bring it in for suspension and steering service. 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, shock absorbers, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Honda Prelude’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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Honda Prelude

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1990 Honda Prelude’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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 1990 Honda Prelude shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Honda Prelude shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Prelude’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1990 Prelude Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Honda's suspension? Maintaining your tires 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 Honda Prelude? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires connect with the road how Honda intended.
  • Does my Honda Prelude power steering fluid need to be checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Prelude is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Honda's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Honda Prelude 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 Prelude to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Prelude tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Prelude 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 do worn Honda Prelude shocks feel like? Worn Prelude shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Prelude might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Prelude shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
