Does your steering wheel feel loose? Does it feel like you are driving a little sideways? If so, bring your Ford to our Nashville, TN service center for wheel alignment services. A wheel alignment is an important part of vehicle maintenance. It helps your tires perform better, increases fuel efficiency, and improves driving safety. If you notice any wheel alignment issues, bring your Ford car, truck, or SUV to our dealership so we can correct the problem.

What is a Wheel Alignment?

A wheel alignment service involves adjusting the suspension angles of your vehicle. Our technicians use specialized equipment to make the necessary adjustments to align your wheels. This service involves a suspension-tuning process that affects your vehicle's handling, tire tread wear, and fuel efficiency. Our technicians measure the angles of the wheels and adjust all suspension components to ensure they are in perfect alignment with one another and the road surface.

Our Ford mechanics use an alignment machine to adjust the angles of your vehicle's wheels according to Ford's specifications. The three main areas that our technicians will adjust include the following:

• Toe - The direction your vehicle's wheels point inward or outward in reference to the side of a wheel well
• Camber - The angle your Ford's wheels point inward or outward toward the top of a wheel well
• Caster - The direction of the suspension's canting, with options for forward, neutral, or backward

You should have a wheel alignment service once every two or three years. It is easy to recognize wheel alignment issues as you drive around Hendersonville. These issues include your tire treads wearing down unevenly, your vehicle tending to pull to the left or right, or your steering wheel being loose. When these issues occur, schedule an appointment at our service center near Brentwood so our technicians can inspect the problem. It can be a quick and affordable maintenance task to improve your Ford's performance, safety, and lifespan.

Another reason your Ford vehicle will need an alignment is that the suspension system can deteriorate over time. Factors like mileage accumulation, poor road conditions, or a collision can contribute to wear and tear or throw the suspension out of alignment. In addition, as parts such as shocks, springs, and other suspension components age, they can lose their proper function and lead to a shift in wheel alignment. Regardless of how often you need your wheels aligned, it is essential to remember that it will be beneficial for your tires and overall driving experience.

When your Ford is out of alignment, it strains the wheels, brakes, and suspension components. If this situation does not get corrected, it can lead to additional mechanical damage that will cost much more than a wheel alignment service. Scheduling service at our dealership near Bellevue is an excellent investment in your Ford's safety and longevity.
