Does Your 1998 Isuzu Rodeo Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 1998 Isuzu Rodeo, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Rodeo 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 Isuzu Rodeo 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, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Rodeo suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Isuzu Rodeo’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.

Isuzu Rodeo Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 1998 Isuzu Rodeo’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 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 Rodeo’s shocks and struts 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 Isuzu Rodeo shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Rodeo’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 1998 Isuzu Rodeo Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Isuzu's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Isuzu Rodeo? 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 the tires connect with the road how Isuzu intended.
  • Does my Isuzu Rodeo power steering fluid need to be checked? 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 follow Isuzu service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Isuzu Rodeo bouncing so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Rodeo to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Rodeo front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Rodeo's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • How do I know if I have worn Isuzu Rodeo shocks? Worn Rodeo 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.
