Does Your 1993 Pontiac LeMans Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 1993 Pontiac LeMans, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Perhaps your LeMans feels bouncy, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 1993 Pontiac LeMans 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 will examine the front and rear end suspension, shock absorbers, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis components, axle bearings, and power steering components. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your LeMans suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost. If parts of your Pontiac LeMans suspension or steering system need to be replaced because they're worn or damaged, we may also suggest a wheel alignment because installing new steering and suspension components may alter wheel angles and ride height.

Pontiac LeMans Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1993 Pontiac LeMans suspension system. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. 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. However, there’s no set schedule for when you should replace your LeMans’s shocks and struts since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking forward and backward can all point to issues with your Pontiac LeMans shocks and struts. One of your best bets is to have your 1993 Pontiac LeMans suspension shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

1993 LeMans Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Pontiac's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my Pontiac LeMans get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotation and alignment are all about making small tweaks that have a big impact. Both services help ensure that the correct amount of pressure is applied to each tire and that your tires come into contact with the road as they should.
  • When should I have my Pontiac LeMans power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid inspected every few months or when you get an oil change. 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 it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your LeMans 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.
  • What can cause the front end of my LeMans to dip forward when I apply the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your LeMans 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 do worn Pontiac LeMans shocks feel like? 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.
