What Can I Expect with Chevrolet Equinox Alignment?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Chevrolet Equinox'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 system is aligned to the measurements that Chevrolet specifies for your vehicle, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. As a result, you get several benefits: you enjoy a smoother ride, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Bring your 2012 Chevrolet Equinox 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. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

When Should I Get Chevrolet Equinox Wheel Alignment?

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Chevrolet Equinox alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on your fuel efficiency, and could cause premature wear on your car if not corrected. You may need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 2012 Chevrolet Equinox: pulling to the left or right, 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 Equinox if your wheel alignment needs attention.
