Why Is Kia Sorento Alignment Important?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Kia Sorento’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 Kia intended. When your suspension is aligned to Kia’s optimal measurements, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. This gives you several benefits: your ride is smoother, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and your suspension system experiences less strain. When you bring in your 2005 Kia Sorento, we’ll perform an alignment check first. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Kia recommendations. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When Should I Get Kia Sorento Wheel Alignment?

It's a good idea to have your Kia Sorento 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 may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 2005 Kia Sorento: pulling to the left or right, excessive wear on only one tire, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or squealing tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Sorento dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My Kia Sorento?

Kia Sorento wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might think. In the long run, it could actually help you save money. Correctly aligned wheels can help boost fuel efficiency and increase the lifespan of your tires, 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 2005 Kia Sorento wheel alignment costs today.
