Is It Time For 1993 Pontiac Firebird Suspension Service?

When you first bought your 1993 Pontiac Firebird, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Firebird jolts, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1993 Pontiac Firebird in for suspension and steering service. We can pinpoint the source of the trouble.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shocks, damper springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis, axle bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if steering and suspension service is needed, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Pontiac Firebird’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Pontiac Firebird Replacement Shocks & Struts

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1993 Pontiac Firebird’s suspension. They contribute to your car’s handling, keeping it from bottoming out when the road gets bumpy. Struts support the structure of the suspension and shocks keep the car from bouncing too much. These components work together to reduce vibration and maintain your car’s height. But there's no set schedule for 1993 Pontiac Firebird shock and strut replacement since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. Bouncing, side-to-side swaying, or rocking forward and backward could all be indicators of worn Pontiac Firebird shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1993 Pontiac Firebird suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

Questions About 1993 Pontiac Firebird Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Firebird's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, 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 Pontiac Firebird? 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 connect with the road how Pontiac intended.
  • When does Pontiac Firebird 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 Firebird is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Pontiac's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Pontiac Firebird bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Firebird 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 Firebird tilt forward when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your Firebird 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.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Pontiac Firebird are bad? Worn Firebird shock absorbers can't effectively absorb road impacts. Your Firebird might feel like it's swaying or rolling when making a turn. You may also feel like your Firebird shakes or rocks harder than normal when you go over a minor bump.
