Tuffy Walled Lake Smart Car Care Videos: Signs of An Alignment Problem

November 25, 2015

When properly aligned, all of your wheels are pointed in the same direction. Your vehicle will track true and handle the way it is designed. Detroit motorists often associate our wheels being “knocked” out of alignment with an event like an accident, hitting a pothole, curb or some other object.

While these can certainly take your wheels out of alignment, the bumps and bounces of everyday Walled Lake driving take their toll on wheel alignment as well.

Moreover, your auto  can lose alignment over time with just normal driving. When your wheels are out of alignment, Tuffy Walled Lake in Walled Lake can return your wheels to the auto manufacturer factory settings. Most owners’ manuals suggest an alignment check every year or two.
