Does Your 1994 Hyundai Excel Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 1994 Hyundai Excel, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your Excel feels bouncy, drifts to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1994 Hyundai Excel 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Excel steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Hyundai Excel Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1994 Hyundai Excel’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the 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 getting your 1994 Hyundai Excel’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Hyundai Excel shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Excel’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

1994 Excel Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Hyundai's 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Hyundai Excel? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Hyundai intended.
  • When does Hyundai Excel 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 Excel’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Hyundai's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Hyundai Excel to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Excel goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • Why does my Excel front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your Excel 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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Hyundai Excel are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Excel feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Excel travels over minor bumps.
