Why Is Nissan Altima Alignment Important?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Nissan Altima’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your 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 Nissan intended them to. When the system is aligned to Nissan specifications, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. As a result, you get 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 2002 Nissan Altima, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Nissan’s recommended measurements. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

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 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 2002 Nissan Altima: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or squealing tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Altima dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.
