Why Is Dodge Caravan Alignment Important?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Dodge Caravan’s suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. In an alignment service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by Dodge. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When your system is aligned to the measurements that Dodge specifies for your vehicle, all of your tires experience equal pressure. Three good things happen as a result: you enjoy a smoother ride, the lifespan of your tires increases, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Bring your 1986 Dodge Caravan in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Dodge. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When Should I Get Dodge Caravan Wheel Alignment?

It’s wise to have your Dodge Caravan alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and could lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle if left unaddressed. You may need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 1986 Dodge Caravan: pulling to the left or right, excessive wear on only one tire, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or tires that squeal frequently. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Caravan dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.
