Does Your 1997 Isuzu Oasis Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 1997 Isuzu Oasis, 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 Oasis jolts, pulls to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1997 Isuzu Oasis in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Oasis suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Oasis steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Isuzu Oasis Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1997 Isuzu Oasis’s suspension. 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 Isuzu up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Oasis’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Isuzu Oasis shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Oasis’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

1997 Oasis Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Isuzu's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Isuzu Oasis? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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 Isuzu Oasis 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 Oasis is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Isuzu service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Isuzu Oasis 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 Oasis to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Oasis's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Oasis 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 do I know if I have worn Isuzu Oasis shocks? Worn Oasis shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Oasis might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Oasis shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
