Brentwood’s Trusted Spot for Reliable and Affordable Service
The Basics of Wheel Alignment Service
For efficient, optimal, and safe vehicle performance, regular maintenance is strongly advised. A wheel alignment is just one way to maintain your car’s excellence. Do you know what this service entails? A wheel alignment squares a car’s wheels so that they track straight and true. During initial vehicle production, manufacturers designate specific angle degrees to align a car’s wheels and axles. When those angles are thrown out of order, alignment service is needed. During this procedure, our mechanics will adjust the toe, camber, and/or caster as needed back to manufacturer specifications. In some cases, the thrust angle will also need to be adjusted. Different types of alignments are available depending on your vehicle’s drivetrain. With four-wheel and all-wheel drive cars, for example, a four-wheel alignment is natural. If your car isn’t 4WD or AWD, it might require a front-end alignment or thrust-angle alignment. The team at CS Automotive in Brentwood, Tennessee, will properly inspect and determine the best alignment service for your vehicle.
Signs You Need Wheel Alignment
Wheel alignment service may be considered part of maintenance, but it differs in that it’s not needed at specific intervals. Wheel misalignment can happen immediately or gradually. If you hit a curb, run over a deep pothole, or hit an object on the road, your wheels can become misaligned right then and there. The wearing of pieces or consistent encounters with bad road conditions can result in a slow-but-sure need for alignment service. So, how exactly do you know if your vehicle needs alignment? Oftentimes, you’ll notice an unsteady balance and poor handling. The vehicle may pull to one side without the driver’s input, or you may experience a crooked steering wheel (a steering wheel that doesn’t sit straight when driving straight). On the outside, a common sign is uneven or excessive tire wear. The only way to know for sure is to come in for a professional consultation. Our technicians are skilled in what they do and have the resources to perform expert assessments and diagnoses. If you experience a change in handling, schedule a visit with us soon!
