Wheel Alignment in Kokomo, IN

Keep Your Car Tracking Straight and True

Overview of Wheel Alignment Service

As a car owner, keeping up with regular maintenance is one of the best things you can do to extend your vehicle’s lifespan and stay protected while driving. One often unheard-of component of maintenance is wheel alignment service. Wheel alignment is needed when one or more of your wheels get out of alignment. The alignment of your wheels influences how your car responds to steering, accelerating, and braking, and it heavily affects the quality and lifespan of your tires. Hitting a pothole, bumping curbs, minor accidents, and general wear-and-tear can cause your wheels to become misaligned. When you come in for service, our ASE-Certified technicians will adjust the angles of your wheels, so they are set back to manufacturer specifications. The angles of your wheels include the camber, caster, and toe. At The Noble Mechanic in Kokomo, Indiana, we can keep you on the straight and narrow with our professional wheel alignment service for all makes and models.

Signs That Your Wheels Are Misaligned

How do you know for sure if you need wheel alignment service? There’s no surefire way to determine without a professional’s inspection and measuring. However, some tell-tale signs point to misalignment with your vehicle. One of the most common is if your car starts drifting to one side or another while driving or finds yourself using the steering wheel to overcorrect when you’re trying to go straight. This pulling and over-steering can also lead to additional problems with your vehicle. More pressure and stress on the steering and suspension systems can cause extra wear, resulting in more repairs or replacement parts. Another element to keep an eye on is your fuel economy. Misalignment reduces the overall surface area between your tires and the road, which means your car has to work slightly more complicated to achieve optimal performance, translating to higher costs for you at the fuel pump. Your tires will also suffer from uneven or accelerated tread wear, or you may notice a squealing sound from your tires.
