How Does Plymouth Horizon Alignment Work?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Plymouth Horizon’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your 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 your suspension is aligned to Plymouth’s optimal measurements, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. As a result, you get several benefits: you enjoy a smoother ride, the lifespan of your tires increases, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1986 Plymouth Horizon, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Plymouth. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.
