What Can I Expect with Mercedes-Benz GLS550 Alignment?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Mercedes-Benz GLS550’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. In 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 Mercedes-Benz intended them to. When the system is aligned to Mercedes-Benz specifications, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. This gives you several benefits: your ride is smoother, the lifespan of your tires increases, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. When you bring in your 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLS550, 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.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Mercedes-Benz GLS550

It’s wise to have your Mercedes-Benz GLS550 alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease 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 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLS550: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your GLS550 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

How Much Does an Alignment for Mercedes-Benz GLS550 Cost?

Mercedes-Benz GLS550 wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might think. Over the years, it could actually save you money. Appropriately aligned wheels can support increased tire lifespan and fuel efficiency, so you get more miles out of the same tank of gas and set of tires. Proper wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLS550 wheel alignment estimate.
