What is a Wheel Alignment?

Despite the name, a wheel alignment doesn’t have anything to do with the wheel or tires themselves, instead, it is performed by adjusting the vehicle’s steering and suspension. The alignment is achieved by adjusting the angles of the tires, so they properly make contact with the road. A wheel alignment is different for each vehicle and is dependent on the make, model, and manufacturer’s recommendations.

When Should You Get an Alignment?

There are a few noticeable signs you can look out for if you think your vehicle needs a wheel alignment. Some of the most common signs that you are dealing with a misalignment include:

● Your car pulls to the left or right
● Rapid or uneven tire wear
● Your steering wheel appears crooked while driving straight
● Tires are making a squealing sound
● Noisy steering

If you notice any of these issues, then it may be time to schedule an alignment with our service department. Some questions you may want to ask yourself to determine if you are having alignment issues, are: When did you first realize the problem? How often does the symptom happen? When was the last time you had your tires rotated? Were the tires or suspension ever replaced? Answering these questions can help you better diagnose your vehicle’s issue.

How Often Should You Get an Alignment?

A wheel alignment normally depends on your typical road conditions and how your specific vehicle drives. Bad roads can often cause alignment issues, making you must get a wheel alignment more often. Have you recently ridden offer a pothole, hit a curb, or driven down an uneven road? Then it may be time to take your vehicle in for wheel alignment.
