2002 Spectra Kia Steering & Suspension Services

When you first bought your 2002 Kia Spectra, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Spectra bounces, leans to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2002 Kia Spectra in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Kia Spectra suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2002 Kia Spectra’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Kia up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2002 Kia Spectra’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 Kia Spectra shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 2002 Kia Spectra suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.
