Why Is Mercury Cougar Alignment Important?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Mercury Cougar’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. In an alignment 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 the system is aligned to Mercury specifications, all of your tires experience equal pressure. Three good things happen as a result: your ride is smoother, the lifespan of your tires increases, and your suspension system experiences less strain. When you bring in your 2001 Mercury Cougar, we’ll perform an alignment check first. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Mercury. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

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 could lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle if left unaddressed. You might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 2001 Mercury Cougar: pulling to the left or right, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your Cougar if your wheel alignment needs attention.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My Mercury Cougar?

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. Proper wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 2001 Mercury Cougar wheel alignment estimate.

Answers to Mercury Cougar Alignment Questions

  • Where's the alignment light on my 2001 Mercury Cougar? Pay close attention to changes in your steering.

If you notice a change in how your car handles while driving, call on the techs at Firestone Complete Auto Care to check your Cougar alignment.

  • How often does your Cougar need a wheel alignment? Check your Cougar owner's manual for Mercury's recommended interval. It's generally a good idea to check your alignment every 6,000 miles or 6 months, depending on which comes first.
