When To Get 1995 Saab 900 Suspension Service

During the first few years you had your 1995 Saab 900, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your 900 bounces, leans 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 1995 Saab 900 in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

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, shock absorbers, damper springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis parts, 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 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 your 900 steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend an alignment. Replacing these parts can change the existing ride height and wheel angles.

Saab 900 Shock & Strut Replacement Services

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 1995 Saab 900’s suspension. They influence the control and handling of the vehicle, keeping it from bottoming out. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 1995 Saab 900’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be signs of worn Saab 900 shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1995 Saab 900’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride. Schedule an appointment for steering and suspension services at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1995 900 Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Saab'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. 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 should my Saab 900 get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Alignment and rotation seem like minor services, but they have a major impact on your vehicle. 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 does Saab 900 power steering fluid need to be inspected or changed? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your 900’s power steering fluid is low, we can fill it per Saab's recommendations to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Saab 900 bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your 900 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 900 front end dip forward when I brake? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your 900'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 Saab 900 are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your 900 feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your 900 travels over minor bumps.
