What is Wheel Alignment?

Your manufacturer designed your vehicle's wheels to be set at specific angles to perform at their best. These angles are crucial in maintaining maneuverability and handling of your steering system.

What Affects a Vehicle's Wheel Alignment?

Your wheel alignment can be offset in many ways, including instances where you hit a pothole or the curb, get into an accident, or hit speedbumps with excessive speed.

When Should I Get a Wheel Alignment?

Most vehicle manufacturers recommend getting a wheel alignment once a year. It's also recommended to get them every time you install new tires or get a tire rotation service. You might need to get a wheel alignment sooner if you experience any of the issues associated with bad alignment.
