How Often Should You Check Your Car's Alignment?

Regular alignment checks are crucial for maintaining your vehicle's performance and safety. We recommend having your car's alignment checked at least once a year or every 10,000 miles. However, if you frequently drive on rough roads or have recently hit a curb or pothole, it's wise to have it checked sooner.

Key Signs That Indicate Your Car Needs an Alignment

There are some stressful situations you can prevent if you are cautious and take proper care of your vehicle. Here are some signs to look out for to know if your car needs an alignment:

  • Your vehicle pulls to one side while driving.
  • The steering wheel is off-center when driving straight.
  • Uneven or rapid tire wear.
  • Vibrations in the steering wheel.

If you notice any of these signs, it's time to schedule an alignment service with us to prevent further damage and ensure your safety on the road!

Advantages of Regular Wheel Alignment

Wheel alignment is crucial for your safety on the road. Misaligned wheels can lead to poor handling, increased stopping distances, and a higher risk of accidents. Ensuring your wheels are properly aligned helps maintain control and stability, especially in emergency situations.

Regular wheel alignment offers numerous benefits, including:

  • Improved Safety: Proper alignment ensures better handling and control of your vehicle.
  • Extended Tire Life: Even tire wear reduces the need for frequent replacements.
  • Enhanced Fuel Efficiency: Correct alignment reduces rolling resistance, improving fuel economy.
  • Smoother Ride: Experience a more comfortable and stable drive.

Common Causes of Car Alignment Problems

Several factors can lead to alignment issues, including:

  • Hitting curbs or potholes.

Understanding these causes can help you take preventive measures and maintain your vehicle's alignment.

If you're concerned about the tread on your tires, we recommend the “penny test” to check your tread depth. Simply insert a penny into your tire's tread groove with Lincoln's head upside down and facing you. If you can see all of Lincoln's head, your tread depth is less than 2/32 inch and it's time to replace your tires.
