Why Is GMC Sierra 1500 Alignment Important?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your GMC Sierra 1500’s suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. In 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 GMC intended them to. When your system is aligned to the measurements that GMC specifies for your vehicle, all of your tires experience equal pressure. This gives you several benefits: your car handles better, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Bring your 2021 GMC Sierra 1500 in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from GMC. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your GMC Sierra 1500

It’s wise to have your GMC Sierra 1500 alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on 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 2021 GMC Sierra 1500: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, excessive wear on only one tire, 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 Sierra 1500 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My GMC Sierra 1500?

Let’s talk numbers: GMC Sierra 1500 wheel alignment might be more budget-friendly than you think. Over the years, it could actually save you money. Appropriately aligned wheels can support increased tire lifespan and fuel efficiency, 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.
