How Does Chevrolet Trax Alignment Work?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Chevrolet Trax's suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. 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. Three good things happen as a result: you enjoy a smoother ride, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. When you bring in your 2017 Chevrolet Trax, we’ll perform an alignment check first. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Chevrolet recommendations. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

When to Get Chevrolet Trax Wheel Alignment

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Chevrolet Trax alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on 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 Trax: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or tires that squeal frequently. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your Trax if your wheel alignment needs attention.

Costs for Chevrolet Trax Alignment Services

Chevrolet Trax wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might think. Over the years, it could actually save you money. Properly aligned wheels may help increase fuel efficiency and tire lifespan, so you get more miles out of the same tank of gas and set of tires. Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs.
