How Does Jaguar XJS Alignment Work?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Jaguar XJS's suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. During the 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 Jaguar intended them to. When the system is aligned to Jaguar specifications, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. As a result, you get several benefits: your car handles better, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1988 Jaguar XJS, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Jaguar’s recommended measurements. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

When Should I Get Jaguar XJS Wheel Alignment?

It’s wise to have your Jaguar XJS alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on your fuel efficiency, and over time can lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 1988 Jaguar XJS: pulling to the left or right, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or squealing tires. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your XJS if your wheel alignment needs attention.

How Much Does an Alignment for Jaguar XJS Cost?

Let’s talk numbers: Jaguar XJS wheel alignment might be more budget-friendly than you think. Over the life of your car, it could help you save on overall costs. Appropriately aligned wheels can support increased tire lifespan and fuel efficiency, meaning you could get more miles out of the same tires or tank of gas. Optimal wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs in the future. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 1988 Jaguar XJS wheel alignment estimate.
