How Does Dodge Ram 1500 Alignment Work?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Dodge Ram 1500’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. When your car has an alignment 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, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. Three good things happen as a result: your ride is smoother, the lifespan of your tires increases, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2005 Dodge Ram 1500, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Dodge recommendations. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

When to Get Dodge Ram 1500 Wheel Alignment

Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your Ram 1500 if your wheel alignment needs attention.
