Why Is Dodge Durango Alignment Important?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Dodge Durango's suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. When your car has an alignment 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 the system is aligned to Dodge specifications, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. As a result, you get several benefits: your car handles better, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2002 Dodge Durango, 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.

When Should I Get Dodge Durango Wheel Alignment?

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Dodge Durango alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on your fuel efficiency, and over time can lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle. You may need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 2002 Dodge Durango: pulling to the left or right, excessive wear on only one tire, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or tires that squeal frequently. You won’t see any warning lights on your Durango dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.
