Why Is Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD Alignment Important?
An alignment involves making adjustments to your Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD'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, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. Three good things happen as a result: your car handles better, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. 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 Silverado 3500 HD
It’s wise to have your Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and over time can lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle. You might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD: pulling to the left or right, excessive wear on only one tire, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or squealing tires. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your Silverado 3500 HD if your wheel alignment needs attention.
How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD?
Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might think. In the long run, it could actually help you save money. Appropriately aligned wheels can support increased tire lifespan and fuel efficiency, 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. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD wheel alignment estimate.
