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. 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, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. As a result, you get several benefits: your car handles better, the lifespan of your tires increases, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2006 Dodge Durango, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. 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 Durango Wheel Alignment?
It’s wise to have your Dodge Durango alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on your fuel efficiency, and could cause premature wear on your car if not corrected. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 2006 Dodge Durango: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or tires that squeal frequently. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your Durango if your wheel alignment needs attention.
How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My Dodge Durango?
Let’s talk numbers: Dodge Durango wheel alignment might be more budget-friendly than you think. Over the years, it could actually save you money. Correctly aligned wheels can help boost fuel efficiency and increase the lifespan of your tires, meaning you could get more miles out of the same tires or tank of gas. Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 2006 Dodge Durango wheel alignment estimate.
