Does Your 1997 Plymouth Prowler Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 1997 Plymouth Prowler, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your Prowler feels bouncy, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 1997 Plymouth Prowler, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

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 dampeners, coil springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, axle bearings, and the power steering system. 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 parts of your Plymouth Prowler suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Plymouth Prowler Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 1997 Plymouth Prowler’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. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Plymouth up off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 1997 Plymouth Prowler shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Plymouth Prowler shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1997 Plymouth Prowler 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.

1997 Prowler Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Prowler's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated 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.
  • Why bother with routine wheel alignments and tire rotations for my Plymouth Prowler? Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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 Plymouth intended.
  • Does my Plymouth Prowler 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 Prowler bouncing excessively? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • What can cause the front end of my Prowler to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Prowler 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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Plymouth Prowler need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Prowler feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Prowler travels over minor bumps.
