Is It Time For 1994 Plymouth Acclaim Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 1994 Plymouth Acclaim, 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 Acclaim jolts, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1994 Plymouth Acclaim in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, coil springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your Acclaim suspension system needs repair, 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.

Plymouth Acclaim Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1994 Plymouth Acclaim suspension system. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. While the struts support the structure of the suspension, the shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Plymouth up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1994 Plymouth Acclaim’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Plymouth Acclaim shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Acclaim’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Schedule an appointment online and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1994 Acclaim Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Plymouth'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. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why should my Plymouth Acclaim 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. 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.
  • Does my Plymouth Acclaim power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your power steering fluid needs to be filled, we’ll follow Plymouth service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Plymouth Acclaim 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 Acclaim's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Acclaim 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 do I know if I have worn Plymouth Acclaim shocks? Worn Acclaim shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Acclaim might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Acclaim shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
