How Does Mitsubishi Galant Alignment Work?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Mitsubishi Galant’s suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. 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 Mitsubishi intended them to. When the system is aligned to Mitsubishi specifications, all of your tires experience equal pressure. Three good things happen as a result: you enjoy a smoother ride, the lifespan of your tires increases, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2001 Mitsubishi Galant, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Mitsubishi’s recommended measurements. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

When to Get Mitsubishi Galant Wheel Alignment

It's a good idea to have your Mitsubishi Galant alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Believe it or not, even one misaligned wheel can reduce fuel efficiency, and could lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle if left unaddressed. You may need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 2001 Mitsubishi Galant: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Galant dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.
