How Does Mazda 626 Alignment Work?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Mazda 626’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. When your car has an alignment 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 Mazda intended them to. When the system is aligned to Mazda specifications, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. This gives you several benefits: you enjoy a smoother ride, the lifespan of your tires increases, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Bring your 1998 Mazda 626 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 Mazda’s recommended measurements. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Mazda 626

It's a good idea to have your Mazda 626 alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on 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 1998 Mazda 626: pulling to the left or right, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. You won’t see any warning lights on your 626 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My Mazda 626?

On a budget? Mazda 626 wheel alignment might be more affordable 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. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 1998 Mazda 626 wheel alignment estimate.

Mazda 626 Alignment Questions

  • I just bought new Mazda 626 tires. Do I need an alignment? Keep new tires in excellent condition with a wheel alignment. Help them wear evenly from the start with a wheel alignment at the time of installation.
  • How frequently should you get a wheel alignment for your 626? It’s usually suggested you check your alignment about every 6,000 miles or 6 months (whichever occurs first). Still, you should reference your 626 owner’s manual for Mazda's recommended interval.
  • Do you need to get your 626 wheels aligned when you get new tires? It’s likely not a requirement to get an alignment when you install new tires on your 626, but it's a smart idea to do so anyway. An alignment can help ensure even tire wear, smooth handling, and better fuel efficiency.
