How Does Nissan Altima Alignment Work?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Nissan Altima’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. In an alignment service, calculated changes are made to the angles of your tires. This is so that your tires hit the road at an optimal angle for your vehicle’s performance — just as Nissan intended. When your suspension is aligned to Nissan’s optimal measurements, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. This gives you several benefits: your ride is smoother, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1998 Nissan Altima, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Nissan. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When to Get Nissan Altima Wheel Alignment

It's a good idea to have your Nissan Altima 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 might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 1998 Nissan Altima: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or squealing tires. You won’t see any warning lights on your Altima dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.

Costs for Nissan Altima Alignment Services

Nissan Altima wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might 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 can fill up less often, plus get more miles out of your tires. Optimal wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs in the future. Call a nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care to get an estimate for 1998 Nissan Altima wheel alignment costs today.
