How Does Mercury Cougar Alignment Work?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Mercury Cougar'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 Mercury intended. When your system is aligned to the measurements that Mercury specifies for your vehicle, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. As a result, you get several benefits: you enjoy a smoother ride, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Bring your 1987 Mercury Cougar in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Mercury’s recommended measurements. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

When Should I Get Mercury Cougar Wheel Alignment?

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Mercury Cougar alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on your fuel efficiency, and over time can lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 1987 Mercury Cougar: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or squealing tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Cougar dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

How Much Does an Alignment for Mercury Cougar Cost?

Mercury Cougar wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might think. Over the years, it could actually save you money. Properly aligned wheels may help increase fuel efficiency and tire lifespan, meaning you could get more miles out of the same tires or tank of gas. Optimal wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs in the future. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 1987 Mercury Cougar wheel alignment estimate.
