Why Is Mercedes-Benz GL550 Alignment Important?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Mercedes-Benz GL550’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your 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 Mercedes-Benz intended. When the system is aligned to Mercedes-Benz specifications, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. As a result, you get several benefits: your car handles better, the lifespan of your tires increases, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. When you bring in your 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL550, we’ll perform an alignment check first. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Mercedes-Benz’s recommended measurements. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Mercedes-Benz GL550

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Mercedes-Benz GL550 alignment checked about 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 might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL550: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, uneven or rapid tire wear, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or tires that squeal frequently. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your GL550 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My Mercedes-Benz GL550?

Mercedes-Benz GL550 wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might think. In the long run, it could actually help you save money. Properly aligned wheels may help increase fuel efficiency and tire lifespan, 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 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL550 wheel alignment estimate.
