How Do I Know If I Need Wheel Alignment?
Symptoms
of poor alignment vary. You may notice that your car pulls to one side.
Observe while driving on a flat straight stretch of road. Do you have
to pull the wheel to one side to maintain a straight path? Steering
vibration and uneven tire wear are other signs that it is time to get
your car into the shop for an alignment.
Why Should I Get An Alignment?
Poor
alignment will shorten the life of your tires, reduce fuel efficiency
and cause unnecessary wear and tear on other parts of your vehicle.
Eventually the situation may become dangerous. A car that is out of
alignment will not magically correct itself. Professional help is
required.
What Causes My Vehicle to go Out of Alignment?
Any
driving situation that causes an impact to your wheels like driving
over a deep pothole can throw your wheels out of alignment.

wheels are making consistent contact with the pavement and that they are
aligned with each other.
