Why Is Mercury Cougar Alignment Important?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Mercury Cougar’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. During the 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 Mercury intended them to. 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. Three good things happen as a result: your ride is smoother, the lifespan of your tires increases, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1999 Mercury Cougar, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Mercury recommendations. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Mercury Cougar

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Mercury Cougar alignment checked about 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 also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 1999 Mercury Cougar: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, uneven or rapid tire wear, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or squealing tires. You won’t see any warning lights on your Cougar dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.

How Much Does an Alignment for Mercury Cougar Cost?

On a budget? Mercury Cougar wheel alignment might be more affordable than you think. Over the life of your car, it could help you save on overall costs. Properly aligned wheels may help increase fuel efficiency and tire lifespan, so you get more miles out of the same tank of gas and set of tires. Optimal wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs in the future. Contact your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care for a no-hassle 1999 Mercury Cougar wheel alignment estimate.
