Why Is Mercedes-Benz S400 Alignment Important?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Mercedes-Benz S400’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 your suspension is aligned to Mercedes-Benz’s optimal measurements, all of your tires experience equal pressure. Three good things happen as a result: you enjoy a smoother ride, 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 2012 Mercedes-Benz S400, we’ll perform an alignment check first. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Mercedes-Benz. 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 S400

It’s wise to have your Mercedes-Benz S400 alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly 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 2012 Mercedes-Benz S400: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, excessive wear on only one tire, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. You won’t see any warning lights on your S400 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.

Mercedes-Benz S400 wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might 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, 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 2012 Mercedes-Benz S400 wheel alignment estimate.
