Does Your 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your Eclipse feels bouncy, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse, bring it 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, shocks, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. 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 parts of your Mitsubishi Eclipse 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.

Mitsubishi Eclipse Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Mitsubishi Eclipse shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse suspension shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

1995 Eclipse Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Mitsubishi's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your 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 bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Mitsubishi Eclipse? 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 your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When should I have my Mitsubishi Eclipse power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we can fill it per Mitsubishi's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Mitsubishi Eclipse 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 Eclipse to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Eclipse's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Eclipse'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 can I tell if the shocks on my Mitsubishi Eclipse are bad? Worn Eclipse shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Eclipse might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Eclipse shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
