When To Get 1994 Mazda 626 Suspension Service

When you first drove your 1994 Mazda 626, 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 626 jolts, sways to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 1994 Mazda 626, bring it 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your 626 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 Mazda 626’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Mazda 626 Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 1994 Mazda 626’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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 Mazda up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your 626’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 Mazda 626 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your 626’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 1994 Mazda 626 Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Mazda's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated 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.
  • Why should my Mazda 626 get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires connect with the road how Mazda intended.
  • When should I have my Mazda 626 power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your 626’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Mazda's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Mazda 626 bounce so much? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my 626 tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your 626'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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Mazda 626 need replacing? Worn 626 shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your 626 might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your 626 shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
