Why Is Mazda 3 Alignment Important?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Mazda 3’s suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. In 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 Mazda intended. When your suspension is aligned to Mazda’s optimal measurements, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. This gives you several benefits: your car handles better, the lifespan of your tires increases, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2016 Mazda 3, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Mazda. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When Should I Get Mazda 3 Wheel Alignment?

It’s wise to have your Mazda 3 alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly 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 may need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 2016 Mazda 3: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, excessive wear on only one tire, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. You won’t see any warning lights on your 3 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.

How Much Does an Alignment for Mazda 3 Cost?

Let’s talk numbers: Mazda 3 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, so you get more miles out of the same tank of gas and set of tires. Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs. Contact your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care for a no-hassle 2016 Mazda 3 wheel alignment estimate.
