How Does Jeep Compass Alignment Work?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Jeep Compass's suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. When your car has 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 suspension is aligned to Jeep’s optimal measurements, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. As a result, you get several benefits: you enjoy a smoother ride, the lifespan of your tires increases, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Bring your 2008 Jeep Compass in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Jeep recommendations. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Jeep Compass

It’s wise to have your Jeep Compass alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Believe it or not, even one misaligned wheel can reduce fuel efficiency, and could cause premature wear on your car if not corrected. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 2008 Jeep Compass: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or squealing tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Compass dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

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. Proper wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs. Call a nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care to get an estimate for 2008 Jeep Compass wheel alignment costs today.

Jeep Compass Alignment Questions
