Does Your 1990 Pontiac 6000 Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 1990 Pontiac 6000, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your 6000 bounces, drifts 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 Pontiac 6000 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, shocks, coil springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel bearings, and power steering system parts. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your 6000 suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If your 6000 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.

Pontiac 6000 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1990 Pontiac 6000’s suspension. 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 components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1990 Pontiac 6000’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. Bouncing, swaying, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Pontiac 6000 shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1990 Pontiac 6000 suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

1990 6000 Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my 6000's steering and suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for 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 Pontiac 6000? 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 Pontiac intended.
  • Does my Pontiac 6000 power steering fluid need to be checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your 6000 is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Pontiac service specifications when topping it off to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why is my Pontiac 6000 bouncing excessively? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your 6000 to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my 6000 to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your 6000'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.
  • What do worn Pontiac 6000 shocks feel like? Worn 6000 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.
