What Is Chevy Wheel Alignment?

Wheel alignment, sometimes called tire alignment, is an auto maintenance process that involves adjusting the suspension of your vehicle to obtain the proper tire angle. When performing a wheel alignment, mechanics look at three different angles: the angle of your tires as viewed from above, or camber, the angle of your tires as viewed from the side, or toe, and your steering axis, or caster.

Why Do I Need Wheel Alignment?

The right alignment ensures that your Chevy’s tires make maximum contact with the road. That’s key for ensuring even and efficient braking and is also vital for maintaining control on bumpy or slippery roads.

Signs of Alignment Trouble

Newton drivers should be aware of the signs of improper wheel alignment. These include steering that drifts, especially when braking, a shaking steering wheel, or tires that wear unevenly. Bad alignment is caused by routine jostling as well as big accidents, which is why we advise Newton drivers to come in for a wheel alignment every 5,000 to 6,000 miles.
