Increased safety and reduced costs
This is why you should check the wheel alignment of your car.
Correct wheel alignment provides better handling, increased safety and reduced costs. Here's how to know when you should have your wheel alignment checked.
What is wheel alignment and why is it important?
Wheel alignment, also known as four-wheel alignment, involves adjusting the angles of your car's wheels so that they are correctly aligned with each other and the road surface. Small deviations can affect driving comfort, safety and the lifespan of your tires.
How does the wheel alignment become skewed?
There are several factors that can cause wheel misalignment. It often occurs after the car has hit a curb, driven over a pothole in the road, or after repairs and replacements of suspension parts such as ball joints, shock absorbers, or end links.
Having your wheel alignment checked is an affordable and effective way to prevent major repair costs, while also providing a more comfortable driving experience.
Signs that you should have your wheel alignment checked
Although wheel alignment checks do not have a fixed recommended interval, there are clear signs that indicate when it is time for a check:
- The car pulls to one side when driving straight ahead.
- Skewed or uneven tire wear, such as one side of the tire wearing faster.
- The steering wheel is crooked even when you are driving straight ahead.
- You experience vibrations in the steering wheel while driving.
- You have recently hit a curb, a pothole, or been in a minor accident.
- You have replaced suspension parts, such as ball joints, shock absorbers or end links.
It is often wise to react early when you notice such symptoms, as waiting can lead to unnecessary wear on both tires and suspension, which in turn can lead to higher workshop costs. An early check can be the difference between a reasonable workshop visit and an expensive repair.
Many people drive around with the wrong wheel alignment without knowing it. This can affect both your safety and your wallet. A check is a small cost that can save you big expenses later.
