Is It Time For 1983 Mitsubishi Cordia Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 1983 Mitsubishi Cordia, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Cordia jolts, leans 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 1983 Mitsubishi Cordia in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, axle bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Cordia suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Cordia 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.

Mitsubishi Cordia Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1983 Mitsubishi Cordia’s suspension. 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 reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Cordia’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Mitsubishi Cordia shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1983 Mitsubishi Cordia suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 1983 Mitsubishi Cordia Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Cordia's steering and suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why should my Mitsubishi Cordia get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Mitsubishi intended.
  • When does Mitsubishi Cordia power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Cordia is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Mitsubishi service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Mitsubishi Cordia to have a bouncy ride? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Cordia to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Cordia front end dip forward when I brake? When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • What do worn Mitsubishi Cordia shocks feel like? If your Cordia shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your Cordia might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
