Why Is Buick Regal Alignment Important?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Buick Regal’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. During the service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by Buick. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. 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 lifespan of your tires increases, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Bring your 1996 Buick Regal in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Buick 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 Buick Regal

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Buick Regal alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease your 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 1996 Buick Regal: pulling to the left or right, excessive wear on only one tire, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or squealing tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Regal dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

How Much Does an Alignment for Buick Regal Cost?

Buick Regal wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might think. Over the life of your car, it could help you save on overall costs. Correctly aligned wheels can help boost fuel efficiency and increase the lifespan of your tires, meaning you could get more miles out of the same tires or tank of gas. Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 1996 Buick Regal wheel alignment estimate.
