How Does Chevrolet Volt Alignment Work?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Chevrolet Volt'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 your system is aligned to the measurements that Chevrolet specifies for your vehicle, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. As a result, you get several benefits: you enjoy a smoother ride, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2018 Chevrolet Volt, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Chevrolet recommendations. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

When Should I Get Chevrolet Volt Wheel Alignment?

It’s wise to have your Chevrolet Volt alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Believe it or not, even one misaligned wheel can reduce fuel efficiency, and could lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle if left unaddressed. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 2018 Chevrolet Volt: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, excessive wear on only one tire, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or squealing tires. You won’t see any warning lights on your Volt dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My Chevrolet Volt?

Chevrolet Volt 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, 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.

Questions About Chevrolet Volt Alignment

  • Why does my 2018 Chevrolet Volt steering feel different? Don't wait for an 'alignment light' on your dashboard. There isn't one. Getting a professional alignment check is the easiest way to know if your Volt alignment is off.
  • Are there road conditions that can hurt my Chevrolet Volt alignment? Potholes and uneven roads can knock your car out of alignment, so stay aware of the road ahead and adjust your speed (or avoid these obstacles whenever it’s safely possible).
  • How can I protect new Chevrolet Volt tires? Keep new tires in excellent condition with a wheel alignment. Help them wear evenly from the start with a wheel alignment at the time of installation.
  • How often should you get a wheel alignment for your Volt? Check your Volt owner's manual for Chevrolet's recommended interval. It's generally a good idea to check your alignment every 6,000 miles or 6 months, depending on which comes first.
  • Do you need an alignment with new Volt tires? You likely aren't required to get an alignment when you put new tires on your Volt, but it's a super smart idea! An alignment can help ensure optimal tire wear, fuel efficiency, and handling. Still, you should reference your Volt owner’s manual for what’s recommended.
