Frequently Asked Questions

How Can I Verify if My Tire Alignment is Done Correctly?

To verify if your tire alignment is correct, find a straight, flat road with minimal traffic. While driving, gradually lift your hands off the steering wheel. If your vehicle maintains a straight path, the alignment is likely correct. However, if the car drifts to the left or right, it indicates that the alignment might need to be adjusted. It’s a good idea to repeat this test a few times to ensure consistent results.

What Should I Check While Driving to Assess Alignment?
When driving, pay attention to how your vehicle behaves. Note any vibrations or pulling in the steering wheel or seat, as these can be signs of misalignment. Ensure the steering wheel is centered and not crooked when driving straight. Additionally, observe if the vehicle pulls to one side, which could indicate an alignment issue. Checking these factors can help you identify if your alignment needs adjustment.
Can I Check Alignment at Home?
Yes, you can perform a basic alignment check at home using a tape measure to assess the toe-in alignment. Measure the distance between the front of the front tires and the back of the front tires. If the measurements differ by more than 1/4 inch, it may indicate misalignment. While this method provides a rough estimate, it’s best to have a professional alignment check for precise results.
Why Does My Car Still Pull After Alignment?

There are several reasons why your car might still pull after an alignment:

  • Incorrect Alignment: The alignment might not have been done correctly. It’s essential to have it double-checked by a trusted mechanic.
  • Other Factors: Issues such as tire wear, suspension problems, or uneven road surfaces can also cause your vehicle to pull to one side. Ensuring these components are in good condition can help maintain proper alignment.
How Often Should I Get an Alignment?
The frequency of wheel alignments depends on your vehicle type and driving conditions. Some vehicles may require regular alignment checks, while others might need them every two years or less. Always refer to your vehicle’s owner manual and consult with your mechanic to determine the appropriate schedule for your specific vehicle.
What’s the Impact of Bad Alignment?

Poor alignment can lead to several issues:

  • Poor Handling: Your vehicle may become difficult to control, affecting safety.
  • Tire Wear: Misalignment causes uneven tire tread wear, reducing tire lifespan and safety. Regular alignments ensure better handling and extend tire life, saving you money in the long run.
What’s a Wheel Alignment Report?
A wheel alignment report provides detailed measurements of your vehicle’s alignment angles, such as camber, toe, and caster. These raw alignment numbers help assess the accuracy of the alignment and identify any adjustments needed. Reviewing this report can ensure that your vehicle’s wheels are aligned correctly according to the manufacturer’s specifications.
What Causes Alignment Issues?

Several factors can cause alignment issues:

  • Potholes and Bumps: Hitting potholes or bumps can knock wheels out of alignment.
  • Worn Suspension Components: Damaged shocks or struts can affect alignment.
  • Regular Wear: Over time, normal driving can gradually shift alignment. Regular maintenance and avoiding road hazards can help maintain proper alignment.

 

Can I Drive with Bad Alignment?
Driving with bad alignment is possible for short distances, but it is not recommended for the long term. Poor alignment can cause excessive tire wear, affecting safety and handling. Over time, it can also damage suspension and steering components, leading to costly repairs. It’s best to address alignment issues promptly to avoid these problems.
How Do I Read a Wheel Alignment Report?
A wheel alignment report includes terms like camber (tilt of the wheels), toe (inward or outward angle of the wheels), and caster (angle of the steering axis). To read the report, compare these values to the recommended ranges for your vehicle, usually found in the owner’s manual. Understanding these terms and comparing the values helps ensure that your alignment is within the correct specifications, maintaining optimal vehicle performance.
