Does Your 1988 Plymouth Sundance Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 1988 Plymouth Sundance, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Sundance bounces, sways to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1988 Plymouth Sundance in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, axle bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your Sundance suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Plymouth Sundance’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Plymouth Sundance Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1988 Plymouth Sundance suspension system. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. 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 1988 Plymouth Sundance’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Plymouth Sundance shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your Sundance’s 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 1988 Plymouth Sundance Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Plymouth's suspension? Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Plymouth Sundance? Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. 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.
  • When does Plymouth Sundance 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 Sundance’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll follow Plymouth service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • What can cause my Plymouth Sundance to have a bouncy ride? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Sundance to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my Sundance to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Sundance'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 can I tell if the shocks on my Plymouth Sundance are bad? Worn Sundance 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.
