Why Is Dodge Caravan Alignment Important?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Dodge Caravan's suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your 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 the system is aligned to Dodge specifications, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. As a result, you get several benefits: your ride is smoother, the lifespan of your tires increases, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1997 Dodge Caravan, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Dodge recommendations. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Dodge Caravan

It's a good idea to have your Dodge Caravan alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. 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 need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 1997 Dodge Caravan: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, uneven or rapid tire wear, 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 Caravan if your wheel alignment needs attention.
