What Can I Expect with Mercury Mountaineer Alignment?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Mercury Mountaineer’s suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the 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 suspension is aligned to Mercury’s optimal measurements, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. Three good things happen as a result: you enjoy a smoother ride, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1997 Mercury Mountaineer, 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.

When to Get Mercury Mountaineer Wheel Alignment

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Mercury Mountaineer alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease your 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 1997 Mercury Mountaineer: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your Mountaineer if your wheel alignment needs attention.
