When To Get 1998 Isuzu Oasis Suspension Service

When you first bought your 1998 Isuzu Oasis, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Oasis bounces, 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 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’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If your Isuzu Oasis’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Isuzu Oasis Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1998 Isuzu Oasis suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. 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. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Isuzu Oasis shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1998 Isuzu Oasis’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

1998 Oasis Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Oasis's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Isuzu Oasis? 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 the tires come into contact with the road in the way Isuzu intended.
  • When should I have my Isuzu Oasis power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Oasis’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Isuzu's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Isuzu Oasis to have a bouncy ride? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Oasis 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 Oasis front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Oasis 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 are the signs that the shocks on my Isuzu Oasis need replacing? Worn Oasis shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
