How Does Mercedes-Benz 420SEL Alignment Work?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Mercedes-Benz 420SEL’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. During the service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by Mercedes-Benz. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When your system is aligned to the measurements that Mercedes-Benz specifies for your vehicle, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. This gives you several benefits: your car handles better, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. When you bring in your 1988 Mercedes-Benz 420SEL, we’ll perform an alignment check first. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Mercedes-Benz. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When to Get Mercedes-Benz 420SEL Wheel Alignment

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Mercedes-Benz 420SEL alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. Believe it or not, even one misaligned wheel can reduce 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 1988 Mercedes-Benz 420SEL: 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 squealing tires. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your 420SEL if your wheel alignment needs attention.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My Mercedes-Benz 420SEL?

Mercedes-Benz 420SEL 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. Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 1988 Mercedes-Benz 420SEL wheel alignment estimate.
