Is your car’s steering pulling to the left or right while you drive?

Perhaps the steering wheel is not straight across after bumping a curb. Or, you may have noticed that your tires are wearing unusually fast, or your car just does not seem to be as easy to control as it was previously. Any one of these symptoms could be pointing towards improper wheel alignment. It can make your car harder to control, and that can be a safety concern. What you might not know is that if your vehicle’s alignment is out of factory specification, it can cause added stress on other parts. Your tires will have accelerated wear and there is more stress on your vehicle’s steering and suspension components. That may mean expensive repairs that could have been avoided with a simple service.

Tire Alignment FAQs

Once a year, or anytime you experience your steering wheel pulling and/or shaking.

- Poor handling (steering wheel pulls and/or shakes) 

- Abnormal and accelerated tire wear 

- Reduced fuel efficiency

In general, wheel alignment helps your vehicle drive straight while tire balancing helps your tires spin without vibration. More specifically, an alignment straightens your steering system so your vehicle handles the way the manufacturer intended it to. Tire balancing attaches your tire to a machine that rotates it at high speeds to assess the weight distribution across your tire’s radius. Technicians adjust the weight distribution where needed to make sure the wheels and tires are capable of spinning without causing vibrations.
