Alignment service on your vehicle refers to the tires being aligned to prolong the life of your tires’ tread and to maintain your safety on the road while driving. Wheel alignment involves setting three different settings on all four tires. The three areas examined are the camber, caster, and toe-in or toe-out. Camber is the inward or outward tilt of the tires when looking at them from the front of a car, truck or SUV. Caster is the wheel tilt from front to back when looking at them from the side and toe-in or toe-out is looking at the tires from the top of the car.
Having all of your wheels aligned properly will enable your tires to last much longer instead of having uneven wear patterns that wear out your tires very quickly and this can lead to a blow out that causes an accident. Alignment of your wheels on your vehicle also helps your car to steer correctly, stay within its lane and corner properly when you are turning.
It’s best to have wheel alignment service when you have your Tire Rotation Service and you should certainly have them aligned when you buy new tires so that they don’t start to wear quickly in odd patterns and wear out in short time. However, if you don’t get your vehicle’s wheels aligned you will notice things that are off when you are driving. Your steering wheel may not go back to the center after you execute a turn and it should always sit straight with the vehicle logo in the center being perfectly vertical. Your steering wheel may be unstable and feel loose, which will make it feel like you need to turn it more than usual to execute a corner. Your vehicle may pull to one side or the other and you could have odd tire wear patterns. If your steering wheel is not performing as it should, this is a sign to go to Green Dodge Ram Service Center immediately, as it can cause you to be in an accident.
