How Does Chevrolet Lumina Alignment Work?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Chevrolet Lumina's suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. During the service, the individual angles of your tires are adjusted so that they come into contact with the road in just the right way — the way Chevrolet intended them to. 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, the lifespan of your tires increases, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Bring your 1997 Chevrolet Lumina 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 make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Chevrolet Lumina

It's a good idea to have your Chevrolet Lumina alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Believe it or not, even one misaligned wheel can reduce fuel efficiency, and could lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle if left unaddressed. You might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 1997 Chevrolet Lumina: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, excessive wear on only one tire, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or tires that squeal frequently. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Lumina dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

Costs for Chevrolet Lumina Alignment Services

Chevrolet Lumina 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, so you get more miles out of the same tank of gas and set of tires. Optimal wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs in the future. Contact your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care for a no-hassle 1997 Chevrolet Lumina wheel alignment estimate.
