Why Is Nissan Pathfinder Alignment Important?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Nissan Pathfinder’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 the system is aligned to Nissan specifications, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. This gives you several benefits: your car handles better, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. When you bring in your 2002 Nissan Pathfinder, we’ll perform an alignment check first. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Nissan. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

When to Get Nissan Pathfinder Wheel Alignment

It’s wise to have your Nissan Pathfinder alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on your fuel efficiency, and could lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle if left unaddressed. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 2002 Nissan Pathfinder: 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 squealing tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Pathfinder dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.
