How Does Nissan Pathfinder Alignment Work?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Nissan Pathfinder’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. During the 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, all of your tires experience equal pressure. As a result, you get several benefits: you enjoy a smoother ride, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2012 Nissan Pathfinder, 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 Pathfinder Wheel Alignment

It’s wise to have your Nissan Pathfinder alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. 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 also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 2012 Nissan Pathfinder: 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. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your Pathfinder if your wheel alignment needs attention.
