Does Your 2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue, 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 Intrigue jolts, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and the power steering system. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if steering and suspension service is needed, 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 parts of your Oldsmobile Intrigue suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Oldsmobile Intrigue

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue’s suspension. 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Oldsmobile Intrigue shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Intrigue’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Intrigue's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Oldsmobile Intrigue? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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.
  • When does Oldsmobile Intrigue 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 power steering fluid needs to be filled, we can fill it per Oldsmobile's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Oldsmobile Intrigue bouncing excessively? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Intrigue 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.
  • What can cause the front end of my Intrigue to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Intrigue'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 do worn Oldsmobile Intrigue shocks feel like? Worn Intrigue shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Intrigue might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Intrigue shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
