Does Your 1992 Mitsubishi Precis Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 1992 Mitsubishi Precis, 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 Precis bounces, leans 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 1992 Mitsubishi Precis in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

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 absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis components, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your Precis 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 Mitsubishi Precis’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Mitsubishi Precis Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1992 Mitsubishi Precis’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. 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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Precis’s shocks and struts since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be signs of worn Mitsubishi Precis shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Precis’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 1992 Mitsubishi Precis Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Mitsubishi's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Mitsubishi Precis? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires connect with the road how Mitsubishi intended.
  • When does Mitsubishi Precis 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 Precis’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Mitsubishi's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Mitsubishi Precis bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your Mitsubishi Precis might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • Why does my Precis's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Precis'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 Precis are bad? 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.
