Why Is Dodge Lancer Alignment Important?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Dodge Lancer's suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. 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. This gives you several benefits: your car handles better, the lifespan of your tires increases, and your suspension system experiences less strain. When you bring in your 1988 Dodge Lancer, we’ll perform an alignment check first. 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 Lancer Wheel Alignment?

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Dodge Lancer alignment checked about 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 need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 1988 Dodge Lancer: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or noticeable squealing noises from your 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. In the long run, it could actually help you save money.

Optimal wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs in the future. Call a nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care to get an estimate for 1988 Dodge Lancer wheel alignment costs today.
