How Does Plymouth Colt Alignment Work?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Plymouth Colt’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 Plymouth. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When the system is aligned to Plymouth specifications, all of your tires experience equal pressure. Three good things happen as a result: your ride is smoother, the lifespan of your tires increases, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Bring your 1988 Plymouth Colt in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Plymouth. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

When to Get Plymouth Colt Wheel Alignment

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Plymouth Colt alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. 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 might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 1988 Plymouth Colt: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, uneven or rapid tire wear, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or squealing tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Colt dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My Plymouth Colt?

Plymouth Colt wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might think. Over the life of your car, it could help you save on overall costs. Appropriately aligned wheels can support increased tire lifespan and fuel efficiency, so you get more miles out of the same tank of gas and set of tires. Optimal wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs in the future. Contact your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care for a no-hassle 1988 Plymouth Colt wheel alignment estimate.
