The Griffin Ford Fort Atkinson service center is focused on integrity and top-notch car maintenance. We know that not everyone is an expert about routine tasks like wheel alignments. That’s why our expert technicians are here to help.
What is a Wheel Alignment?
A wheel alignment is a procedure that involves adjusting your vehicle’s suspension, with its tires, back to the exact angles specified by the manufacturer.
Mechanics measure, understand, and diagnose through three main parameters: the camber, the caster, and the toe. These reference points help professionals fix your suspension.
This task is important because over time, or due to bumps on imperfect Wisconsin roads, the suspension can become misaligned. Misalignment leads to tire damage, decreased steering capacity, and lower fuel efficiency. Putting wheel alignments into your regular service schedule are a simple way extend the life of your new or used car.
Do I Need a Wheel Alignment?
Here are three easy ways to tell if your vehicle needs an alignment:
- Your steering wheel is off center when you drive in a straight line, pulling your car to one side
- Your tires are wearing out abnormally quickly, or losing tread unevenly
- Your steering wheel is shaking/vibrating, or loose/hard to handle
If you are unsure, our committed technicians here at Griffin Ford Fort Atkinson are highly trained to diagnose your vehicle accurately and service it accordingly.
