What Can I Expect with Mercury Cougar Alignment?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Mercury Cougar's suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. During the 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 the system is aligned to Mercury specifications, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. This gives you 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 1996 Mercury Cougar in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Mercury recommendations. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When Should I 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 might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 1996 Mercury Cougar: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, excessive wear on only one tire, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or tires that squeal frequently. You won’t see any warning lights on your Cougar dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.

Appropriately aligned wheels can support increased tire lifespan and fuel efficiency, so you can fill up less often, plus get more miles out of your tires. Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs.
