Why Is Mazda 6 Alignment Important?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Mazda 6’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. 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 Mazda intended. When your system is aligned to the measurements that Mazda specifies for your vehicle, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. 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 2012 Mazda 6, we’ll perform an alignment check first. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Mazda. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

When to Get Mazda 6 Wheel Alignment

It’s wise to have your Mazda 6 alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly 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 2012 Mazda 6: pulling to the left or right, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your 6 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

Costs for Mazda 6 Alignment Services

Let’s talk numbers: Mazda 6 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 can fill up less often, plus get more miles out of your tires. Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 2012 Mazda 6 wheel alignment estimate.

Mazda 6 Alignment Questions

  • Where's the alignment light on my 2012 Mazda 6? Pay close attention to changes in your steering. There is no 'alignment light' on your dashboard, so it’s up to you to stay ahead of misalignment. If you notice a change in how your car handles while driving, call on the techs at Firestone Complete Auto Care to check your 6 alignment.
