Warning Signs Your Vehicle Needs Alignment
Several symptoms indicate your vehicle requires immediate wheel alignment attention, and recognizing these signs early can prevent costly tire replacement and suspension damage. Vehicle pulling to one side while driving on straight roads represents the most common alignment issue, often caused by uneven toe settings or camber angles that don’t match manufacturer specifications. Uneven or rapid tire wear patterns, particularly on the inner or outer edges of tires, signal alignment problems that worsen without professional correction. An off-center steering wheel when driving straight, steering wheel vibration during normal driving conditions, or squealing tires when turning corners all indicate alignment issues requiring professional diagnosis. Recent suspension work, including strut replacement, spring installation, or steering component repairs, necessitates alignment verification to ensure proper wheel positioning. Our technicians at Nef’s Auto Repair thoroughly inspect steering and suspension components during every alignment service, identifying potential issues before they compromise vehicle safety or performance.
