Why Is Pontiac Safari Alignment Important?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Pontiac Safari’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. In an alignment service, calculated changes are made to the angles of your tires. This is so that your tires hit the road at an optimal angle for your vehicle’s performance — just as Pontiac intended. When your suspension is aligned to Pontiac’s optimal measurements, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. As a result, you get several benefits: your ride is smoother, the lifespan of your tires increases, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1989 Pontiac Safari, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Pontiac. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When to Get Pontiac Safari Wheel Alignment

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Pontiac Safari alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. 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 also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 1989 Pontiac Safari: pulling to the left or right, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, 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 Safari if your wheel alignment needs attention.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My Pontiac Safari?

Pontiac Safari 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. Correctly aligned wheels can help boost fuel efficiency and increase the lifespan of your tires, 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 1989 Pontiac Safari wheel alignment estimate.
