What to Expect With an Alignment
1. Schedule Your Appointment
Whether scheduling online or over the phone be sure and let us know what you're experiencing so we can provide fast and accurate service advice.
2. Diagnostics and Inspections
Drop off your vehicle and the shop will get to work with inspections and diagnostics using the same equipment as the manufacturers to determine issues and next steps.
3. Digital Vehicle Inspection Report and Estimate
Following the diagnosis we will text you a digital vehicle inspection report, containing pictures and videos of our findings and recommendations.
4. Review and Approval
A service advisor will reach out to walk you through the findings and recommendations to determine how you would like to proceed, or you can approve work directly in your DVI.
5. Work Performed or Scheduled
Most work can be completed immediately, or scheduled based on parts and customer availability.
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.

Local Roads & Special Alignment Considerations
In North Wales, varying road conditions and frequent transitions from highways like Route 309 to residential streets can affect your car’s alignment. Potholes, weather-related wear, and changing road terrains underscore the importance of regular alignments. Our services take these challenges into account by offering specific guidance tailored to Montgomeryville drivers.
Maintaining proper wheel alignment can:
- Extend Tire Life: Protects tires from uneven wear and prolongs their usability.
- Enhance Safety: Helps prevent unexpected lane shifts and ensures better vehicle control.
- Improve Fuel Efficiency: Reduces rolling resistance, thus improving fuel consumption.
Proactively addressing alignment issues can ensure you get the most out of your vehicle.
In addition, addressing alignment issues immediately can prevent other mechanical problems that arise from neglect. For instance, driving with misaligned wheels can increase stress on the drivetrain, leading to potential damage to components such as axles and differentials. Being proactive about your vehicle’s alignment can ultimately save you money and time, reducing the likelihood of significant repairs in the future.
