How Does Saturn SL Alignment Work?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Saturn SL’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. During the service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by Saturn. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When your suspension is aligned to Saturn’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 there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1997 Saturn SL, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Saturn. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When Should I Get Saturn SL Wheel Alignment?

It’s wise to have your Saturn SL alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on 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 1997 Saturn SL: pulling to the left or right, uneven or rapid tire wear, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or squealing tires. You won’t see any warning lights on your SL dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.
