How Does Pontiac Grand Am Alignment Work?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Pontiac Grand Am'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 Pontiac. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When your suspension is aligned to Pontiac’s optimal measurements, 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 your suspension system experiences less strain. Bring your 1987 Pontiac Grand Am in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Pontiac recommendations. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Pontiac Grand Am

It's a good idea to have your Pontiac Grand Am alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Believe it or not, even one misaligned wheel can reduce fuel efficiency, and could cause premature wear on your car if not corrected. You may need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 1987 Pontiac Grand Am: 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. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your Grand Am if your wheel alignment needs attention.

Costs for Pontiac Grand Am Alignment Services

Pontiac Grand Am 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. Properly aligned wheels may help increase fuel efficiency and tire lifespan, meaning you could get more miles out of the same tires or tank of gas. Optimal wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs in the future. Contact your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care for a no-hassle 1987 Pontiac Grand Am wheel alignment estimate.
