Does Your 1987 Chevrolet Beretta Suspension Need Inspection?

When you first drove your 1987 Chevrolet Beretta, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Perhaps your Beretta feels bouncy, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 1987 Chevrolet Beretta, bring it in for steering and suspension services. We'll pinpoint the problem.

We'll start by inspecting the suspension system to diagnose your vehicle. We will examine the front and rear end suspension, shocks, damper springs, CV joints and axles, bushings, struts, chassis, wheel 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 Chevrolet Beretta’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.

Chevrolet Beretta Suspension Shocks or Strut Replacement

Shocks and struts are important parts of your 1987 Chevrolet Beretta suspension system. 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 pieces work together to help dampen vibration and hold the car off the ground. But there's no set schedule for 1987 Chevrolet Beretta shock and strut replacement since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, swaying from side to side, or rocking back and forth can all point to issues with your Chevrolet Beretta shocks and struts. It’s a good idea to have your 1987 Chevrolet Beretta’s shocks and struts regularly checked out by a certified auto technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

1987 Beretta Steering & Suspension Questions

  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Chevrolet's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for 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.
  • Are routine tire rotations and wheel alignments important for my Chevrolet Beretta? 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 the tires connect with the road how Chevrolet intended.
  • When should I have my Chevrolet Beretta power steering fluid checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your Beretta is low on power steering fluid, we’ll follow Chevrolet service specifications when topping it off to help ensure proper suspension operation.
  • Why does my Chevrolet Beretta bounce so much? Excessive bouncing in your Chevrolet Beretta might be due to damaged struts or shocks that are unable to absorb road bumps effectively, causing your vehicle to feel more like a pogo stick than a smooth ride.
  • Why does my Beretta's nose dive down when I hit the brakes? The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Beretta'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.
  • What are the signs that the shocks on my Chevrolet Beretta need replacing? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your Beretta feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your Beretta travels over minor bumps.
