Why Is Ford Flex Alignment Important?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Ford Flex’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. During the service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by Ford. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When your system is aligned to the measurements that Ford specifies for your vehicle, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. Three good things happen as a result: your car handles better, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. When you bring in your 2014 Ford Flex, we’ll perform an alignment check first. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Ford. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Ford Flex

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Ford Flex alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and could lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle if left unaddressed. You may need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 2014 Ford Flex: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. You won’t see any warning lights on your Flex dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.

How Much Does an Alignment for Ford Flex Cost?

On a budget? Ford Flex wheel alignment might be more affordable than you think. Over the years, it could actually save you money. Properly aligned wheels may help increase fuel efficiency and tire lifespan, so you can fill up less often, plus get more miles out of your tires. Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs.

Ford Flex Alignment Questions

  • Where's the alignment light on my 2014 Ford Flex? Pay close attention to changes in your steering. There is no 'alignment light' on your dashboard, so it’s up to you to stay ahead of misalignment. If you notice a change in how your car handles while driving, call on the techs at Firestone Complete Auto Care to check your Flex alignment.
  • How can I avoid knocking my Ford Flex out of alignment? Potholes and uneven roads can knock your car out of alignment, so stay aware of the road ahead and adjust your speed (or avoid these obstacles whenever it’s safely possible).
  • New tires on your Ford Flex? Keep new tires in excellent condition with a wheel alignment. Help them wear evenly from the start with a wheel alignment at the time of installation.
  • How often does your Flex need a wheel alignment? Check your Flex owner's manual for Ford's recommended interval. It's generally a good idea to check your alignment every 6,000 miles or 6 months, depending on which comes first.
  • Do you need an alignment with new Flex tires? It’s likely not a requirement to get an alignment when you install new tires on your Flex, but it's a smart idea to do so anyway. An alignment can help ensure even tire wear, smooth handling, and better fuel efficiency.

  • My Flex steering wheel is crooked. Will an alignment fix it? A wheel alignment is usually what it takes to fix a crooked Flex steering wheel.
