Why Is Jeep Cherokee Alignment Important?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Jeep Cherokee’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. 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 Jeep intended. When your system is aligned to the measurements that Jeep specifies for your vehicle, all of your tires experience equal pressure. As a result, you get several benefits: your ride is smoother, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and your suspension system experiences less strain. When you bring in your 2020 Jeep Cherokee, we’ll perform an alignment check first. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Jeep. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When Should I Get Jeep Cherokee Wheel Alignment?

It's a good idea to have your Jeep Cherokee alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. 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 2020 Jeep Cherokee: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, uneven or rapid tire wear, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or squealing tires. You won’t see any warning lights on your Cherokee dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.

Costs for Jeep Cherokee Alignment Services

On a budget? Jeep Cherokee wheel alignment might be more affordable than you think. Over the life of your car, it could help you save on overall costs. Correctly aligned wheels can help boost fuel efficiency and increase the lifespan of your tires, meaning you could get more miles out of the same tires or tank of gas. Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 2020 Jeep Cherokee wheel alignment estimate.
