What is a Wheel Alignment?

One of the final steps before a vehicle leaves an automaker's manufacturing facility is to align the tires. Technicians use special equipment to move the tires into the correct position with the other tires. Then they are tilted into the correct place. When vehicles are driven, though, things like potholes, parking curbs and rough roads can move the tires out of the ideal position. When the wheels are out of alignment, the vehicle will start pulling to one side. A simple two or four wheel alignment will put the wheels back into the right position.

Why Wheel Alignments are Important

Misaligned vehicles force the driver to oversteer to correct the vehicle's path. The repetitive movement makes the engine and the axles work harder. The misalignment also impacts the tires. It will cause the tires to develop wear patterns and maybe even start to bulge. Alignments are an easy maintenance task though that will make your engine and your tires last longer. Your vehicle will also have better fuel efficiency. Your tires should be rotated every time your wheels are aligned.

Dangers of Putting Off a Wheel Alignment

Wheel alignments are part of the vehicle's routine maintenance that often gets overlooked. But having it done can prevent future issues. If not taken care of, the problem will worsen the more it is driven.
