What Can I Expect with Ram 1500 Alignment?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Ram 1500’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. In an alignment 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 Ram intended them to. When your suspension is aligned to Ram’s optimal measurements, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. This gives you several benefits: your car handles better, the lifespan of your tires increases, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. When you bring in your 2012 Ram 1500, we’ll perform an alignment check first. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Ram’s recommended measurements. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

When Should I Get Ram 1500 Wheel Alignment?

It's a good idea to have your Ram 1500 alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and could cause premature wear on your car if not corrected. You might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 2012 Ram 1500: 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 1500 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

How Much Does an Alignment for Ram 1500 Cost?

Let’s talk numbers: Ram 1500 wheel alignment might be more budget-friendly than you 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 can fill up less often, plus get more miles out of your tires. Optimal wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs in the future. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 2012 Ram 1500 wheel alignment estimate.

Answers to Ram 1500 Alignment Questions
