Does Your 1990 Plymouth Laser Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 1990 Plymouth Laser, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Laser bounces, leans 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 1990 Plymouth Laser in for steering and suspension services. 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, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your Laser suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your Laser 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 Laser Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1990 Plymouth Laser’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your Laser’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Plymouth Laser shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1990 Plymouth Laser suspension shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 1990 Plymouth Laser Steering & Suspension

  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Plymouth's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.
  • Why should my Plymouth Laser get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When should I have my Plymouth Laser power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. If your Laser is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Plymouth service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Plymouth Laser bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Laser 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.
  • Why does my Laser's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Laser'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 do I know if I have worn Plymouth Laser shocks? Worn Laser shock absorbers can cause your vehicle to feel like it's bouncing or hopping over bumps instead of absorbing the impacts smoothly. You may also experience more body roll when turning.
