Does Your 1994 Hyundai Elantra Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 1994 Hyundai Elantra, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Elantra jolts, pulls 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 Hyundai Elantra in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. 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 Hyundai Elantra’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Hyundai Elantra Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1994 Hyundai Elantra’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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 Hyundai up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 1994 Hyundai Elantra shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Hyundai Elantra shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1994 Hyundai Elantra’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

1994 Elantra Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Hyundai's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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 Hyundai Elantra get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does Hyundai Elantra power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll top it off per Hyundai's guidelines to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Hyundai Elantra to have a bouncy ride? Excessive bouncing in your Hyundai Elantra 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.
  • Why does my Elantra's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Elantra 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.
  • How do I know if I have worn Hyundai Elantra shocks? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Elantra feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Elantra travels over minor bumps.
