What Can I Expect with GMC Sierra 1500 HD Alignment?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your GMC Sierra 1500 HD's suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. In an alignment service, calculated changes are made to the angles of your tires. This is so that your tires hit the road at an optimal angle for your vehicle’s performance — just as GMC intended. When your suspension is aligned to GMC’s optimal measurements, all of your tires experience equal pressure. Three good things happen as a result: your car handles better, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2001 GMC Sierra 1500 HD, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match GMC’s recommended measurements. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

When Should I Get GMC Sierra 1500 HD Wheel Alignment?

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your GMC Sierra 1500 HD alignment checked about every 6,000 miles.

You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 2001 GMC Sierra 1500 HD: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or tires that squeal frequently. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your Sierra 1500 HD if your wheel alignment needs attention.
