How Does Ford Mustang Alignment Work?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Ford Mustang's suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. 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 Ford intended them to. When the system is aligned to Ford specifications, all of your tires experience equal pressure. This gives you several benefits: your ride is smoother, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Bring your 2002 Ford Mustang in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Ford recommendations. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Ford Mustang

It's a good idea to have your Ford Mustang alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Believe it or not, even one misaligned wheel can reduce 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 2002 Ford Mustang: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. You won’t see any warning lights on your Mustang dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.
