How Does Oldsmobile Silhouette Alignment Work?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Oldsmobile Silhouette’s suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. When your car has an alignment 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, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. Three good things happen as a result: you enjoy a smoother ride, the lifespan of your tires increases, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. When you bring in your 2001 Oldsmobile Silhouette, we’ll perform an alignment check first. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Oldsmobile. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Oldsmobile Silhouette

It's a good idea to have your Oldsmobile Silhouette alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Believe it or not, even one misaligned wheel can reduce fuel efficiency, and over time can lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle. You may need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 2001 Oldsmobile Silhouette: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, excessive wear on only one tire, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or squealing tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Silhouette dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.
