How Does Buick LaCrosse Alignment Work?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Buick LaCrosse’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. In an alignment service, calculated changes are made to the angles of your tires. This is so that your tires hit the road at an optimal angle for your vehicle’s performance — just as Buick intended. When your suspension is aligned to Buick’s optimal measurements, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. This gives you several benefits: you enjoy a smoother ride, the lifespan of your tires increases, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2011 Buick LaCrosse, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Buick. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Buick LaCrosse

It's a good idea to have your Buick LaCrosse alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Believe it or not, even one misaligned wheel can reduce fuel efficiency, and could cause premature wear on your car if not corrected. You might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 2011 Buick LaCrosse: pulling to the left or right, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or squealing tires. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your LaCrosse if your wheel alignment needs attention.
