Does Your 1998 Hyundai Tiburon Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 1998 Hyundai Tiburon, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Tiburon jolts, 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 1998 Hyundai Tiburon in for suspension and steering service. 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 check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Hyundai Tiburon’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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Hyundai Tiburon

Your 1998 Hyundai Tiburon’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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 getting your 1998 Hyundai Tiburon’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Hyundai Tiburon shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1998 Hyundai Tiburon suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 1998 Hyundai Tiburon Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Hyundai'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. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Hyundai Tiburon? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • Does my Hyundai Tiburon power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Tiburon’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Hyundai's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Hyundai Tiburon bouncing so much? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my Tiburon's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Tiburon 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.
  • What do worn Hyundai Tiburon shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Tiburon feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Tiburon travels over minor bumps.
