Why Is Mitsubishi Lancer Alignment Important?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Mitsubishi Lancer’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. 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 Mitsubishi intended them to. When your system is aligned to the measurements that Mitsubishi specifies for your vehicle, all of your tires experience equal pressure. Three good things happen as a result: your car handles better, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and your suspension system experiences less strain. When you bring in your 2003 Mitsubishi Lancer, we’ll perform an alignment check first. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Mitsubishi recommendations. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

When to Get Mitsubishi Lancer Wheel Alignment

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Mitsubishi Lancer 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 might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 2003 Mitsubishi Lancer: pulling to the left or right, 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 Lancer if your wheel alignment needs attention.
