Is It Time For 1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Suspension Service?

During the first few years you had your 1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Cutlass Supreme jolts, 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 1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme, bring it 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’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme’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 Cutlass Supreme Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Struts support the structure of the suspension and 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 getting your 1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Cutlass Supreme's steering and 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 Supreme get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. 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.
  • When should I have my Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll follow Oldsmobile service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why is my Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme bouncing so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Cutlass Supreme to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Cutlass Supreme front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Cutlass Supreme'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 do I know if I have worn Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme shocks? Worn Cutlass Supreme shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Cutlass Supreme might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Cutlass Supreme shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
