When To Get 1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera Suspension Service

When you first bought your 1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera, 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 Cutlass Ciera jolts, pulls to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your Cutlass Ciera 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 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Your 1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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 Oldsmobile up off the ground. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Cutlass Ciera’s shocks and struts since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Cutlass Ciera’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.

1990 Cutlass Ciera Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Oldsmobile's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why should my Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to all tires and that the tires connect with the road how Oldsmobile intended.
  • Does my Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Cutlass Ciera’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Oldsmobile's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera 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 Cutlass Ciera front end dip forward when I brake? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Cutlass Ciera 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 Cutlass Ciera are bad? Worn Cutlass Ciera shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Cutlass Ciera might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Cutlass Ciera shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
