What Can Happen 

Wheel alignment refers to the relationship of your car’s body to the road and that of the wheels to one another. This is expressed in the major suspension angles: camber, caster, toe, and thrust. Proper alignment facilitates driver control, particularly when taking curves and corners because traction is maximized through proper contact between the tires and the road. It also promotes even tread wear, helping you save money when you get the maximum mileage out of your set of tires. Over time, the everyday jolts every car encounters along the road can cause your vehicle’s wheel alignment to shift. That’s why it’s a good idea to have St. Croix Tire & Auto check the alignment periodically or if you notice signs of potential misalignment. Your automobile’s wheel alignment can also sustain sudden trauma. Culprits include hitting a major obstacle, such as a large pothole or curb, as well as a traffic accident.  

What to Do About Wheel Misalignment 

In addition to having us check your car’s wheel alignment occasionally, you may want to have St. Croix Tire & Auto perform this service when you purchase a new set of tires to ensure your treads get off to the best possible start. Also, be aware of the signs that your vehicle has a wheel alignment problem. The most obvious and earliest sign for many motorists is uneven tire wear. The tires don’t constantly contact the pavement, so you’ll soon notice that the tread is worn significantly more in some areas than others. Another symptom can be noted when your car pulls to one side when you’re trying to drive straight ahead. You may also observe that your steering wheel appears crooked or will not return to the center. Your tires may also make a high-pitched screeching noise as you drive. Your solution for bad alignment is to bring your automobile to St. Croix Tire & Auto. We’ll use our alignment rack and computerized equipment to make accurate measurements. Then, we’ll carefully make the adjustments needed to return your vehicle’s suspension angles to the manufacturer’s specifications, helping you drive safely and efficiently.
