Wheel alignment is an essential maintenance service that ensures your vehicle’s wheels are positioned at the correct angles according to manufacturer specifications. Proper alignment plays a key role in vehicle stability, tire longevity, and overall driving comfort. Alignment issues can develop gradually through normal driving or occur suddenly after hitting potholes, curbs, or other road hazards.

When your wheels are properly aligned, your vehicle drives straight, handles predictably, and your tires wear evenly. Misaligned wheels, on the other hand, can cause uneven or rapid tire wear, reduced handling performance, increased fuel consumption, and added stress on suspension components. Common warning signs include your vehicle pulling to one side, a steering wheel that sits off-center when driving straight, vibrations while steering, or uneven tire tread wear.

During a wheel alignment service, a technician carefully adjusts the wheel angles—camber, caster, and toe—to meet factory guidelines. Routine alignment checks are especially important if you notice alignment issues, replace tires, or have suspension work performed. Maintaining proper wheel alignment helps ensure safe driving, optimal vehicle performance, and maximum tire lifespan.
