Why Is Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Alignment Important?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Chevrolet Silverado 1500’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. When your car has an alignment 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 suspension is aligned to Chevrolet’s optimal measurements, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. This gives you several benefits: your car handles better, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. When you bring in your 2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, we’ll perform an alignment check first. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Chevrolet recommendations. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

When to Get Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Wheel Alignment

It’s wise to have your Chevrolet Silverado 1500 alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. 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 also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, excessive wear on only one tire, 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 Silverado 1500 if your wheel alignment needs attention.
