Why Is Chevrolet Malibu Alignment Important?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Chevrolet Malibu’s suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the 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 four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. This gives you several benefits: your ride is smoother, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and your suspension system experiences less strain. When you bring in your 2012 Chevrolet Malibu, we’ll perform an alignment check first. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Chevrolet’s recommended measurements. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

When Should I Get Chevrolet Malibu Wheel Alignment?

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Chevrolet Malibu alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. Believe it or not, even one misaligned wheel can reduce fuel efficiency, and could cause premature wear on your car if not corrected. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 2012 Chevrolet Malibu: pulling to the left or right, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or tires that squeal frequently. You won’t see any warning lights on your Malibu dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.

Costs for Chevrolet Malibu Alignment Services

Chevrolet Malibu 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, meaning you could get more miles out of the same tires or tank of gas. Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 2012 Chevrolet Malibu wheel alignment estimate.
