Does Your 1992 Plymouth Colt Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 1992 Plymouth Colt, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Colt bounces, 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 1992 Plymouth Colt in for suspension and steering service. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shock absorbers, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem 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 Colt steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Plymouth Colt Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1992 Plymouth Colt suspension system. 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 getting your 1992 Plymouth Colt’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation could all be indicators of worn Plymouth Colt shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1992 Plymouth Colt’s 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.

1992 Colt Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • 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 alert you to the need for new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Plymouth Colt? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires connect with the road how Plymouth intended.
  • When should I have my Plymouth Colt power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Colt’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Plymouth service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • What can cause my Plymouth Colt to have a bouncy ride? 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 Colt's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Colt when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Plymouth Colt are bad? If your Colt shock absorbers are worn out, they won’t be able to properly dampen road bumps. You might experience a bouncy or unstable ride, especially over bumps or rough roads. Your Colt might also feel like it sways or rolls as you turn.
