Is It Time For 1984 Oldsmobile Omega Suspension Service?

When you first drove your 1984 Oldsmobile Omega, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Omega bounces, drifts to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1984 Oldsmobile Omega in for suspension and steering service. 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, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, 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 Omega steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Oldsmobile Omega Replacement Shocks & Struts

Your 1984 Oldsmobile Omega’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the 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 getting your 1984 Oldsmobile Omega’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be signs of worn Oldsmobile Omega shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Omega’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

1984 Omega Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Oldsmobile's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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 Omega? 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 come into contact with the road in the way Oldsmobile intended.
  • When should I have my Oldsmobile Omega power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your Omega is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Oldsmobile's recommendations to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Oldsmobile Omega bouncing 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 Omega tilt forward when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Omega'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 can I tell if the shocks on my Oldsmobile Omega are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Omega feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Omega travels over minor bumps.
