Does Your 1994 Honda Prelude Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 1994 Honda Prelude, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Prelude 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 1994 Honda Prelude in for steering and suspension services. 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 take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Prelude suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If parts of your Honda Prelude suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, 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

Your 1994 Honda Prelude’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 1994 Honda Prelude shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Honda Prelude shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1994 Honda Prelude’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1994 Prelude Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Honda'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 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 come into contact with the road in the way Honda intended.
  • When does Honda Prelude 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 power steering fluid needs to be filled, we can fill it per Honda's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Honda Prelude bounce so much? 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 momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Prelude'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 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.
