Why Do Wheels Need Aligned?
Are There Common Signs An Alignment Is Off?
If you notice any of the following issues, you should book your vehicle in for service as soon as possible:
- The need to fight the steering wheel to drive straight
- Any collisions with another vehicle, no matter how minor
- Any collisions with a stationary object including curbs, potholes, or speed bumps
- A new vehicle has reached 3,000 km
- You’ve changed your tires for the season
- Any part of your suspension has recently been repaired
How Often Should a Wheel Alignment Be Checked?
Once a year is a good rule of thumb, or even as often as whenever you come in for a regular oil change. At minimum, get the alignment adjusted any time you swap your tires. If you notice any steering issues, you should consider booking in as soon as possible for an alignment check for safety reasons. Checking wheel alignment doesn’t take long, so we can get you back on the road quickly.
