Why Is Pontiac Firebird Alignment Important?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Pontiac Firebird’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. During the service, the individual angles of your tires are adjusted so that they come into contact with the road in just the right way — the way Pontiac intended them to. When your system is aligned to the measurements that Pontiac specifies for your vehicle, all of your tires experience equal pressure. Three good things happen as a result: your ride is smoother, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. When you bring in your 1986 Pontiac Firebird, we’ll perform an alignment check first. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Pontiac recommendations. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Pontiac Firebird

It's a good idea to have your Pontiac Firebird alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. 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 1986 Pontiac Firebird: pulling to the left or right, excessive wear on only one tire, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or squealing tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Firebird dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.
