How Does Dodge Nitro Alignment Work?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Dodge Nitro'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 suspension is aligned to Dodge’s optimal measurements, all of your tires experience equal pressure. This gives you several benefits: your ride is smoother, the lifespan of your tires increases, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2009 Dodge Nitro, 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 make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When to Get Dodge Nitro Wheel Alignment

It's a good idea to have your Dodge Nitro alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Even a small misalignment can decrease 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 2009 Dodge Nitro: pulling to the left or right, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or squealing tires. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your Nitro if your wheel alignment needs attention.
