Alignment 

While having this service performed on your vehicle is often simply referred to as an “alignment” or “wheel alignment”, it is actually a complex operation where your cars suspension angles are measured, and a variety of suspension components are being adjusted. Think of getting an alignment like a suspension system “tune-up”. Alignments influence not only the operation of a vehicle’s tires, but also the way the vehicle handles and steers.

 

Out-of-alignment

"Out-of-alignment”, occurs when the suspension and the steering system are not working at their desired angles. In older vehicles, these conditions are most often caused by spring sag or suspension wear (bushings, ball joints, etc.) Another way to put the suspension out of alignment is an impact with a pothole or curb. Incorrect alignment usually results in more rapid tire wear.

 

When should you get an alignment check?

The alignment of your vehicle should be a) checked whenever new tires or suspension components are installed, and b) whenever unusual tire wear patterns appear. You should also consider having your alignment checked after your vehicle has encountered a major road hazard or curb.
