When To Get 1990 Mitsubishi Mirage Suspension Service

When you first drove your 1990 Mitsubishi Mirage, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Mirage jolts, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1990 Mitsubishi Mirage in for suspension and steering service. 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, shock dampeners, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Mirage suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Mirage 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 Mirage Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1990 Mitsubishi Mirage suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Mitsubishi up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 1990 Mitsubishi Mirage shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Mitsubishi Mirage shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Mirage’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1990 Mirage Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Mitsubishi's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new 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 Mitsubishi Mirage? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. 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.
  • Does my Mitsubishi Mirage power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Mirage’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Mitsubishi's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why is my Mitsubishi Mirage bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Mirage to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Mirage tilt forward when I hit the brakes? 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 are the signs that the shocks on my Mitsubishi Mirage need replacing? If your Mirage 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 Mirage might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
