Why Is Dodge Ram 1500 Alignment Important?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Dodge Ram 1500's suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. During the service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by Dodge. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When the system is aligned to Dodge specifications, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. Three good things happen as a result: your ride is smoother, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. When you bring in your 2004 Dodge Ram 1500, we’ll perform an alignment check first. 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.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Dodge Ram 1500

It's a good idea to have your Dodge Ram 1500 alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on your fuel efficiency, and over time can lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 2004 Dodge Ram 1500: pulling to the left or right, uneven or rapid tire wear, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or tires that squeal frequently. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Ram 1500 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My Dodge Ram 1500?

Let’s talk numbers: Dodge Ram 1500 wheel alignment might be more budget-friendly than you think. Over the years, it could actually save you money. Appropriately aligned wheels can support increased tire lifespan and fuel efficiency, meaning you could get more miles out of the same tires or tank of gas. Proper wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 wheel alignment estimate.
