Spring has nearly sprung, meaning it's time to get on top of your seasonal maintenance! One of the essential services for the season is tire alignments, especially with potholes marring Pennsylvania roads. Learn more about tire service and why you should schedule yours sooner rather than later.
What Is a Tire Alignment?
A tire alignment adjusts your vehicle's suspension, an essential system that connects the vehicle and the wheels. However, this is not a simple turn of the tires and wheels. A tire alignment adjusts the angles of your tires, affecting how they connect and make contact with Wilkes-Barre roads. This service should be an essential part of your vehicle's maintenance because it can lengthen the life of your tires and improve their performance. Like all routine services, tire alignments are an investment in the health and longevity of your car and its various parts.
Signs Your Vehicle Needs a Tire Alignment
We know how many potholes occupy Scranton roads: lots. Whether you're on the road for your daily commute or take your truck around town for various construction jobs, if you sometimes hit these potholes, they can throw your vehicle's alignment off.
Aren't sure if it's time for a tire alignment? Our certified technicians can easily take a look for you! However, before you stop by our service center, here are some telltale signs to look for:
- Vehicle pulls to one side
- Steering wheel is off center
- Steering wheel vibrates
- Uneven tread wear
- Squealing tires
