Does Your 1995 Oldsmobile 98 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 1995 Oldsmobile 98, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your 98 jolts, leans to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 1995 Oldsmobile 98, 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, shock absorbers, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your 98 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.

Oldsmobile 98 Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 1995 Oldsmobile 98’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1995 Oldsmobile 98’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Oldsmobile 98 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1995 Oldsmobile 98 suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1995 98 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Oldsmobile's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also alert you to the need for new 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 Oldsmobile 98? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that the tires come into contact with the road in the way Oldsmobile intended.
  • When does Oldsmobile 98 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 98’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Oldsmobile service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Oldsmobile 98 bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your 98 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.
  • Why does my 98 tilt forward when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your 98 combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • What do worn Oldsmobile 98 shocks feel like? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your 98 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your 98 travels over minor bumps.
