How Does Acura RDX Alignment Work?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Acura RDX's suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. During the service, the individual angles of your tires are adjusted so that they come into contact with the road in just the right way — the way Acura intended them to. When your system is aligned to the measurements that Acura specifies for your vehicle, all of your tires experience equal pressure. As a result, you get several benefits: your car handles better, the lifespan of your tires increases, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2014 Acura RDX, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Acura recommendations. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Acura RDX

It’s wise to have your Acura RDX alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on your fuel efficiency, and over time can lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle. You may need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 2014 Acura RDX: pulling to the left or right, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your RDX dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

How Much Does an Alignment for Acura RDX Cost?

Let’s talk numbers: Acura RDX wheel alignment might be more budget-friendly than you think. Over the years, it could actually save you money. Correctly aligned wheels can help boost fuel efficiency and increase the lifespan of your tires, so you can fill up less often, plus get more miles out of your tires. Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 2014 Acura RDX wheel alignment estimate.
