Why does my 1992 Mercedes-Benz 500SL steering feel different?

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 500SL alignment.

Why Is Mercedes-Benz 500SL Alignment Important?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Mercedes-Benz 500SL’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 Mercedes-Benz intended. When the system is aligned to Mercedes-Benz specifications, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. This gives you several benefits: you enjoy a smoother ride, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and your suspension system experiences less strain. When you bring in your 1992 Mercedes-Benz 500SL, we’ll perform an alignment check first. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Mercedes-Benz’s recommended measurements. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When Should I Get Mercedes-Benz 500SL Wheel Alignment?

It’s wise to have your Mercedes-Benz 500SL alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on your fuel efficiency, and could cause premature wear on your car if not corrected. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 1992 Mercedes-Benz 500SL: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, 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. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your 500SL dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

How Much Does an Alignment for Mercedes-Benz 500SL Cost?

Mercedes-Benz 500SL wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might think. Over the years, it could actually save you money. Correctly aligned wheels can help boost fuel efficiency and increase the lifespan of your tires, meaning you could get more miles out of the same tires or tank of gas. Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs. Call a nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care to get an estimate for 1992 Mercedes-Benz 500SL wheel alignment costs today.
