Each part of your vehicle is interconnected and will be affected by a wheel imbalance. Properly aligned wheels can improve your steering and suspension, making for a smoother ride. Misalignment can also exacerbate tire wear and tear if left unattended.
Bauer Built offers comprehensive two- and four-wheel alignment services to ensure your tires are level with the ground, angled straight and parallel to each other. We complete a thorough analysis of your vehicle to identify potential issues and help you avoid costly repairs.
Our expert technicians take the guesswork out of vehicle maintenance so you can get in, get out and get back on the road quickly.
Hitting potholes and debris, bumping into curbs and colliding with other vehicles can result in wheel misalignment. You may also be prone to alignment issues if you drive at high speeds over rough roads regularly.
Signs of wheel misalignment include:
We begin the alignment service with a visual inspection to check for uneven tread wear, cracked rims and corrosion. That allows our techs to assess the severity of your vehicle’s misalignment and identify the underlying issue.
Your vehicle is placed on an alignment machine that uses sensors to measure the angle of your wheel’s toe, camber and caster. The results determine how your wheels must be adjusted side to side and in relation to the vehicle’s frame.
This part of our process ensures your wheels are centered to promote improved handling and driver safety. We adjust your front wheels first before using those measurements to correct the rear wheels if necessary.
Calibrating your steering wheel supports vehicle stability, handling and traction control. We assess your vehicle’s steering angle sensor to ensure it is functioning properly. Our technicians complete steering wheel calibrations after wheel alignment to make sure the mechanical and diagnostic systems are in sync.
Our technicians complete a thorough inspection after all alignment services are complete to verify accuracy. They recheck alignment angles, tighten adjustments, check tire pressure and road test their work.
Properly aligned wheels boost handling, allowing you to maintain better control of your vehicle on the road. That’s especially important when driving during inclement weather and over rough roads. Evasive maneuvers are more reliable when your wheels and steering wheel are in sync, reducing your risk of collision in the event of a sudden stop.
