Why Is Geo Metro Alignment Important?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Geo Metro’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. During the service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by Geo. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When your suspension is aligned to Geo’s optimal measurements, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. This gives you several benefits: you enjoy a smoother ride, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Bring your 1996 Geo Metro in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Geo recommendations. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Geo Metro

It’s wise to have your Geo Metro alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and over time can lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle. You may need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 1996 Geo Metro: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. You won’t see any warning lights on your Metro dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.
