Why Is Dodge Colt Alignment Important?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Dodge Colt's suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the 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 suspension is aligned to Dodge’s optimal measurements, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. As a result, you get several benefits: your ride is smoother, the lifespan of your tires increases, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1992 Dodge Colt, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Dodge’s recommended measurements. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Dodge Colt

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Dodge Colt alignment checked about 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 1992 Dodge Colt: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or squealing tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Colt dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.
