Does Your 1995 Oldsmobile Achieva Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 1995 Oldsmobile Achieva, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Achieva jolts, leans to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1995 Oldsmobile Achieva in for steering and suspension repairs. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, wheel bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Achieva suspension system needs repair, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission. If your Achieva 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.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Oldsmobile Achieva

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1995 Oldsmobile Achieva’s suspension. 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 reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 1995 Oldsmobile Achieva shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Oldsmobile Achieva shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Achieva’s 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.

Questions About 1995 Oldsmobile Achieva Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Oldsmobile's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Oldsmobile Achieva? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires connect with the road how Oldsmobile intended.
  • Does my Oldsmobile Achieva power steering fluid need to be checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Achieva is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Oldsmobile's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Oldsmobile Achieva bouncing so much? Excessive bouncing in your Oldsmobile Achieva 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 Achieva tilt forward when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Achieva 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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Oldsmobile Achieva are bad? Worn Achieva 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.
