Why Is Dodge Lancer Alignment Important?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Dodge Lancer’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. In an alignment service, calculated changes are made to the angles of your tires. This is so that your tires hit the road at an optimal angle for your vehicle’s performance — just as Dodge intended. When your system is aligned to the measurements that Dodge specifies for your vehicle, all of your tires experience equal pressure. This gives you 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. When you bring in your 1985 Dodge Lancer, we’ll perform an alignment check first. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Dodge. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Dodge Lancer

It’s wise to have your Dodge Lancer alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease 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 1985 Dodge Lancer: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or squealing tires. You won’t see any warning lights on your Lancer dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.
