How Does Buick Century Alignment Work?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Buick Century’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. When your car has an alignment 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 Buick intended them to. When your suspension is aligned to Buick’s optimal measurements, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. As a result, you get several benefits: your car handles better, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. When you bring in your 2002 Buick Century, we’ll perform an alignment check first. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Buick. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

When Should I Get Buick Century Wheel Alignment?

It’s wise to have your Buick Century alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and could lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle if left unaddressed. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 2002 Buick Century: pulling to the left or right, excessive wear on only one tire, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or tires that squeal frequently. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Century dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

Costs for Buick Century Alignment Services

Let’s talk numbers: Buick Century wheel alignment might be more budget-friendly than you think. In the long run, it could actually help you save money. Correctly aligned wheels can help boost fuel efficiency and increase the lifespan of your tires, so you get more miles out of the same tank of gas and set of tires. Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs.
