What Can I Expect with Chevrolet Malibu Alignment?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Chevrolet Malibu's suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. During the service, calculated changes are made to the angles of your tires. This is so that your tires hit the road at an optimal angle for your vehicle’s performance — just as Chevrolet intended. When the system is aligned to Chevrolet specifications, all of your tires experience equal pressure. As a result, you get several benefits: your car handles better, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Bring your 1997 Chevrolet Malibu in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Chevrolet’s recommended measurements. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

When Should I Get Chevrolet Malibu Wheel Alignment?

It's a good idea to have your Chevrolet Malibu alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Even a small misalignment can decrease 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 1997 Chevrolet Malibu: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or squealing tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Malibu dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

How Much Does an Alignment for Chevrolet Malibu Cost?

Chevrolet Malibu wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might think. Over the years, it could actually save you money. 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. Optimal wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs in the future. Call a nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care to get an estimate for 1997 Chevrolet Malibu wheel alignment costs today.
