How Does Mercury Cougar Alignment Work?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Mercury Cougar’s suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. In an alignment service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by Mercury. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When the system is aligned to Mercury specifications, all of your tires experience equal pressure. As a result, you get several benefits: your ride is smoother, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Bring your 1989 Mercury Cougar in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Mercury. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

When to Get Mercury Cougar Wheel Alignment

It's a good idea to have your Mercury Cougar alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. 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 1989 Mercury Cougar: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, excessive wear on only one tire, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or tires that squeal frequently. 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. Proper wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 1989 Mercury Cougar wheel alignment estimate.
