How Does Kia Rio Alignment Work?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Kia Rio’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your 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 Kia intended them to. When your suspension is aligned to Kia’s optimal measurements, all of your tires experience equal pressure. As a result, you get several benefits: you enjoy a smoother ride, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Bring your 2017 Kia Rio in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Kia. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

When Should I Get Kia Rio Wheel Alignment?

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Kia Rio alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and could lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle if left unaddressed. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 2017 Kia Rio: pulling to the left or right, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or squealing tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Rio dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

Costs for Kia Rio Alignment Services

Kia Rio wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might think. Over the life of your car, it could help you save on overall costs. Properly aligned wheels may help increase fuel efficiency and tire lifespan, 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 2017 Kia Rio wheel alignment estimate.
