When To Get 1990 Pontiac LeMans Suspension Service

When you first drove your 1990 Pontiac LeMans, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your LeMans bounces, leans to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 1990 Pontiac LeMans in for steering and suspension services. We'll figure out what needs to be taken care of, if anything.

The technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will start with a suspension inspection to diagnose your vehicle. We’ll check the front and rear suspension, shocks, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis components, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if steering and suspension service is needed, 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 Pontiac LeMans suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Pontiac LeMans Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Your 1990 Pontiac LeMans’s suspension system relies on its shocks and struts to function properly. 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 Pontiac up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1990 Pontiac LeMans’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors can impact the wear rate and severity. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Pontiac LeMans shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your LeMans’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 1990 Pontiac LeMans Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Pontiac's 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 Pontiac LeMans? 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 come into contact with the road in the way Pontiac intended.
  • Does my Pontiac LeMans power steering fluid need to be checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your LeMans is low on power steering fluid, we can fill it per Pontiac's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • What can cause my Pontiac LeMans 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 LeMans to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my LeMans's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your LeMans when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Pontiac LeMans are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your LeMans feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your LeMans travels over minor bumps.
