Is It Time For 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your Bravada feels bouncy, drifts 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 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue 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 Oldsmobile Bravada’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.

Oldsmobile Bravada Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Oldsmobile up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada shock and strut replacement since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Oldsmobile Bravada shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada’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.

2000 Bravada 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 help you notice when you need new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Oldsmobile Bravada? 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 come into contact with the road in the way Oldsmobile intended.
  • Does my Oldsmobile Bravada 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 Bravada is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Oldsmobile's recommendations to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Oldsmobile Bravada bounce so much? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my Bravada tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Bravada'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 are the signs that the shocks on my Oldsmobile Bravada need replacing? Worn Bravada shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Bravada might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Bravada shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
