Why Is Dodge Colt Alignment Important?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Dodge Colt's suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your 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 Dodge intended them to. When your system is aligned to the measurements that Dodge 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 lifespan of your tires increases, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. When you bring in your 1985 Dodge Colt, we’ll perform an alignment check first. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Dodge’s recommended measurements. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When Should I Get Dodge Colt Wheel Alignment?

It's a good idea to have your Dodge Colt 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 might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 1985 Dodge Colt: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or tires that squeal frequently. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your Colt if your wheel alignment needs attention.

How Much Does an Alignment for Dodge Colt Cost?

Dodge Colt 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. Appropriately aligned wheels can support increased tire lifespan and fuel efficiency, so you can fill up less often, plus get more miles out of your tires. Optimal wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs in the future. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 1985 Dodge Colt wheel alignment estimate.
