What Can I Expect with Kia Sportage Alignment?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Kia Sportage’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 system is aligned to the measurements that Kia specifies for your vehicle, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. As a result, you get several benefits: your ride is smoother, the lifespan of your tires increases, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Bring your 2019 Kia Sportage in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Kia’s recommended measurements. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

When Should I Get Kia Sportage Wheel Alignment?

It’s wise to have your Kia Sportage alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. 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 2019 Kia Sportage: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or tires that squeal frequently. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your Sportage if your wheel alignment needs attention.

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

Let’s talk numbers: Kia Sportage wheel alignment might be more budget-friendly than you think. Over the life of your car, it could help you save on overall costs. Appropriately aligned wheels can support increased tire lifespan and fuel efficiency, meaning you could get more miles out of the same tires or tank of gas. Proper wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs. Contact your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care for a no-hassle 2019 Kia Sportage wheel alignment estimate.
