Why Is Chevrolet C3500 Alignment Important?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Chevrolet C3500's suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. During the 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 suspension is aligned to Chevrolet’s optimal measurements, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. As a result, you get several benefits: your ride is smoother, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Bring your 1996 Chevrolet C3500 in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Chevrolet. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

When to Get Chevrolet C3500 Wheel Alignment

It's a good idea to have your Chevrolet C3500 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 need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 1996 Chevrolet C3500: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, uneven or rapid tire wear, 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 C3500 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.
