Does Your 1993 Mitsubishi Galant Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 1993 Mitsubishi Galant, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Galant bounces, sways to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1993 Mitsubishi Galant in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

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, struts, bushings, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Galant steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Mitsubishi Galant Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1993 Mitsubishi Galant suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Galant’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Mitsubishi Galant shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1993 Mitsubishi Galant’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician.

1993 Galant Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Mitsubishi's suspension? Maintaining your tires 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Mitsubishi Galant? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires connect with the road how Mitsubishi intended.
  • When does Mitsubishi Galant 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 Galant’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Mitsubishi service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Mitsubishi Galant 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 Galant's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Galant 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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Mitsubishi Galant need replacing? Worn Galant 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.
