Wheel Alignment
Four Wheel Alignment
Sometimes as obvious as a crooked steering wheel or a hard pull to one direction or the other, a bad alignment can also be more discreet, causing abnormal and/or premature wear on your tires. A poor alignment can even cause drastic changes to your fuel economy, and last we checked, fuel prices aren't cheap!MAKE AN APPOINTMENT
Wheel Alignment
Incorrect alignment conditions occur when the suspension and steering systems are not operating at their desired angles. Out-of-alignment conditions are most often caused by spring sag or suspension wear (ball joints, bushings, etc.) on an older vehicle. They can also be the result of an impact with a pot hole, curb, or change in the vehicle ride height (lowered or raised) on any vehicle regardless of age. Incorrect alignment settings will usually result in more rapid tire wear. Therefore alignment should be checked when new tires or suspension components are installed, and any time unusual tire wear patterns appear.
Alignment should also be checked after the vehicle has encountered a major road hazard or curb.
Wheel alignment is considered by routine preventative maintenance and here at Vorderman Motor Werks we have the alignment racks, equipment and expertise to correctly determine your alignment and adjust accordingly.
