When To Get 1989 Mitsubishi Precis Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 1989 Mitsubishi Precis, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your Precis feels bouncy, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 1989 Mitsubishi Precis, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

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, shocks, springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If parts of your Mitsubishi Precis suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Mitsubishi Precis Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1989 Mitsubishi Precis’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Mitsubishi up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 1989 Mitsubishi Precis 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 indicators of worn Mitsubishi Precis shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1989 Mitsubishi Precis’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1989 Precis Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Mitsubishi's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also alert you to the need for new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Mitsubishi Precis? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major 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.
  • Does my Mitsubishi Precis power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Precis’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 Precis bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Precis to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my Precis to dip forward when I apply 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 Precis need replacing? Worn Precis 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.
