Does Your 1990 Plymouth Acclaim Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first bought your 1990 Plymouth Acclaim, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Acclaim jolts, sways to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1990 Plymouth Acclaim in for steering and suspension repairs. 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, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem 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 Plymouth Acclaim 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 Plymouth Acclaim

Your 1990 Plymouth Acclaim’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. Struts support the structure of the suspension and 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 1990 Plymouth Acclaim shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, swaying, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Plymouth Acclaim shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Acclaim’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 1990 Plymouth Acclaim Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Plymouth's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new 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 Plymouth Acclaim? Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When does Plymouth Acclaim power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Acclaim’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Plymouth's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Plymouth Acclaim bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your Plymouth Acclaim might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • What can cause the front end of my Acclaim to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Acclaim'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 Plymouth Acclaim need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Acclaim feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Acclaim travels over minor bumps.
