Importance Of Wheel Alignment & What It Is
Wheel alignment is an adjustment that a technician performs to set your wheels' geometry, allowing your vehicle to drive straight and not veer to either side. It's very important to keep up with wheel alignment since an out-of-specification vehicle can cause its tires and suspension components to wear out prematurely. Also, having proper wheel alignment makes the vehicle easy to drive and control, maintaining optimal safety while performing emergency stops or maneuvers.
Causes Of Wheel Alignment To Fall Out Of Specifications
Depending on how you drive and the type of roads you typically commute daily, your wheel alignment might fall out of specifications. The most common way to get your wheels out of alignment is by hopping or jumping curbs, but it's also possible for larger potholes to affect your vehicle's alignment. Another way your alignment can be out is if you had a direct impact between your wheels and the curb.
