Why Is Chevrolet Astro Alignment Important?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Chevrolet Astro's suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. When your car has an alignment service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by Chevrolet. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When your system is aligned to the measurements that Chevrolet specifies for your vehicle, all of your tires experience equal pressure. As a result, you get several benefits: your ride is smoother, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1986 Chevrolet Astro, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Chevrolet recommendations. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Chevrolet Astro

It's a good idea to have your Chevrolet Astro alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Believe it or not, even one misaligned wheel can reduce fuel efficiency, and over time can lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 1986 Chevrolet Astro: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your Astro if your wheel alignment needs attention.
