Is It Time For 1995 Lexus SC400 Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 1995 Lexus SC400, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your SC400 bounces, pulls to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1995 Lexus SC400 in for suspension and steering service. 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 take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your SC400 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.

Lexus SC400 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1995 Lexus SC400 suspension system. 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 reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 1995 Lexus SC400 shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Lexus SC400 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your SC400’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1995 SC400 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my SC400's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Lexus SC400? 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 Lexus SC400 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 SC400’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Lexus's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Lexus SC400 bouncing so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your SC400 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 SC400 front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your SC400 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 Lexus SC400 shocks? Worn SC400 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.
