What Can I Expect with Dodge Lancer Alignment?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Dodge Lancer’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. 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 suspension is aligned to Dodge’s optimal measurements, all of your tires experience equal pressure. This gives you several benefits: your car handles better, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1986 Dodge Lancer, 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. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

When Should I Get Dodge Lancer Wheel Alignment?

It’s wise to have your Dodge Lancer alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Believe it or not, even one misaligned wheel can reduce 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 1986 Dodge Lancer: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, excessive wear on only one tire, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, 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.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My Dodge Lancer?

Let’s talk numbers: Dodge Lancer wheel alignment might be more budget-friendly than you think. Over the years, it could actually save you money. Properly aligned wheels may help increase fuel efficiency and tire lifespan, meaning you could get more miles out of the same tires or tank of gas. Optimal wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs in the future. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 1986 Dodge Lancer wheel alignment estimate.
