Wheel alignment is a crucial aspect of vehicle maintenance that is often overlooked by many car owners. Properly aligned wheels ensure that your vehicle drives straight and handles well, promoting even tire wear and extending the life of your tires. At Lexus of Warwick, we understand the significance of wheel alignment and are here to help keep your vehicle in top condition.
How Wheels Get Out of Alignment
Several factors can cause your vehicle's wheels to become misaligned. Hitting potholes, curbs, or road debris can knock your wheels out of alignment. Wear and tear on suspension components, such as springs and ball joints, can also lead to misalignment over time. Even minor accidents or bumps can disrupt your vehicle's alignment, leading to potential handling issues and uneven tire wear.
Signs of Misaligned Wheels
There are a few telltale signs that indicate your vehicle may need a wheel alignment:
- Your vehicle pulls to one side while driving on a straight, level road.
- The steering wheel is off-center when driving straight.
- You notice uneven or rapid tire wear.
- The steering wheel vibrates or the vehicle feels unstable at higher speeds.
If you experience any of these symptoms, it's essential to have your wheel alignment checked by a professional.
