Keeping your Jeep running safely requires regular maintenance, including wheel alignment service. At Meador Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, our factory-trained technicians can check your alignment and make precise adjustments to ensure optimal performance. Here's what you should know about this essential service for your Jeep Wrangler, Dodge Challenger, or Ram 1500.
Wheel alignment refers to adjusting the angles of the wheels so that they are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the ground. This involves checking the camber, caster, and toe angles and making corrections as needed. Proper alignment is critical to ensure each tire wears down at the same range, offers a smooth ride, has precise steering, and provides maximum fuel efficiency.
During a wheel alignment service, the technician will put your Jeep, Dodge, Chrysler, Ram or other vehicle on a lift and use an alignment machine to measure the current angles. They will then make adjustments to the suspension components, including the tie rods, ball joints, and control arms, as needed to bring the angles within the manufacturer's specifications. Getting your alignment checked and corrected regularly will help keep your vehicle driving like new.
A common question we get asked is, "How do I know if I need an alignment?" A few common symptoms to watch out for include:
If you notice any of these issues, it's best to have your alignment checked as soon as possible. Driving with misaligned wheels for too long can cause premature wear on your tires and suspension components, leading to more expensive repairs down the road.
Even if you haven't noticed any obvious signs, it's a good idea to have your alignment inspected periodically. Experts typically recommend an alignment check about every 6,000 miles or with every other oil change. If you frequently drive on rough roads or have recently had a minor accident, you may want to get your alignment checked sooner.
