How Does Jeep Patriot Alignment Work?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Jeep Patriot’s suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. When your car has 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 Jeep intended them to. When your suspension is aligned to Jeep’s optimal measurements, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. This gives you 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 2017 Jeep Patriot 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 make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When Should I Get Jeep Patriot Wheel Alignment?

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Jeep Patriot alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and could cause premature wear on your car if not corrected. You might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 2017 Jeep Patriot: pulling to the left or right, excessive wear on only one tire, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your Patriot if your wheel alignment needs attention.
