Alignments 101

What is Wheel Alignment?  When all of the elements of your suspension are in proper alignment, your car will go straight.  It really is that simple. 

What causes my car to go out of alignment?  In Vero Beach we have several reasons that cause vehicles to become misaligned.  Some of those are uneven paved roads, speed bumps, curbs, potholes, road debris.

How can I tell if my car is out of alignment?  If you notice that you have uneven tire wear (the inside of the tire is worn more than the outside of your tire or vice-versa) or your vehicle ?pulls? to one side, then most likely your car is not aligned properly.

What happens if I do not align my car?  Improper alignment will cause your tires to wear prematurely.  Failure to have your car aligned properly will cost you money unnecessarily.

What do we do prior to aligning your car?  Prior to performing the alignment, our technicians will first perform a thorough inspection for worn, bent or broken suspension parts.  We will also check to make sure the tire pressures are set correctly in each tire.  We will not align your vehicle if your vehicle is within manufacturer specifications.

How often should I have my car aligned?  Due to the severe driving conditions in Vero Beach, we recommend that you have your car aligned once annually as a good interval.  Additionally, if you buy new tires, we recommend you have your vehicle aligned at that time.

Potholes?Yes we have potholes in Vero Beach!
