Does Your 2000 Saturn LW2 Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 2000 Saturn LW2, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your LW2 jolts, sways 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 2000 Saturn LW2 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, shock dampeners, springs, struts, bushings, CV joints and axles, chassis parts, 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 all of your options and the potential cost. If your LW2 steering or suspension system requires replacement parts, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Saturn LW2 Replacement Shocks & Struts

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 2000 Saturn LW2 suspension system. 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 limit vibration and keep your Saturn up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2000 Saturn LW2’s shocks and struts replaced since many things can influence the wear rate and severity of the wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or an unusual rocking sensation can all point to issues with your Saturn LW2 shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your LW2’s shocks and struts regularly inspected by a trusted technician. So, avoid a bumpy ride.

Questions About 2000 Saturn LW2 Steering & Suspension

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Saturn'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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Saturn LW2? 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 Saturn intended.
  • When should I have my Saturn LW2 power steering fluid checked? Have your power steering fluid checked when you get an oil change or every few months. If your LW2’s power steering fluid is low, we’ll top it off per Saturn's guidelines to help your suspension perform smoothly.
  • Why does my Saturn LW2 bounce so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your LW2 to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my LW2's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? As you brake, the forward momentum of your LW2 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 Saturn LW2 shocks feel like? Worn LW2 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.
