When To Get 1991 Mitsubishi Mirage Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 1991 Mitsubishi Mirage, 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 Mirage jolts, drifts 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 1991 Mitsubishi Mirage in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your Mirage 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 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

Your 1991 Mitsubishi Mirage’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. 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. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1991 Mitsubishi Mirage’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Mitsubishi Mirage shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1991 Mitsubishi Mirage’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician.

1991 Mirage 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 Mirage? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does Mitsubishi Mirage power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Mirage’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Mitsubishi's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Mitsubishi Mirage bouncing excessively? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Mirage goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • What can cause the front end of my Mirage to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Mirage'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 do worn Mitsubishi Mirage shocks feel like? Worn Mirage 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.
