Why Is Oldsmobile 98 Alignment Important?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Oldsmobile 98’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. During the service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by Oldsmobile. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When your suspension is aligned to Oldsmobile’s optimal measurements, all of your tires experience equal pressure. Three good things happen as a result: your car handles better, the lifespan of your tires increases, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1986 Oldsmobile 98, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Oldsmobile. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Oldsmobile 98

It's a good idea to have your Oldsmobile 98 alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. 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 1986 Oldsmobile 98: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or squealing tires. You won’t see any warning lights on your 98 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.
