What Can I Expect with Jeep Cherokee Alignment?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Jeep Cherokee’s suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. During the 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 Jeep intended. When the system is aligned to Jeep specifications, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. Three good things happen as a result: your car handles better, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Bring your 1985 Jeep Cherokee in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Jeep’s recommended measurements. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Jeep Cherokee

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Jeep Cherokee alignment checked about 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 might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 1985 Jeep Cherokee: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or squealing tires. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your Cherokee if your wheel alignment needs attention.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My Jeep Cherokee?

Jeep Cherokee wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might think. Over the years, it could actually save you money. Appropriately aligned wheels can support increased tire lifespan and fuel efficiency, so you get more miles out of the same tank of gas and set of tires. Optimal wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs in the future. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 1985 Jeep Cherokee wheel alignment estimate.
