Why Is Scion xB Alignment Important?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Scion xB’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. In an alignment service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by Scion. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When the system is aligned to Scion specifications, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. Three good things happen as a result: you enjoy a smoother ride, the lifespan of your tires increases, and your suspension system experiences less strain. When you bring in your 2011 Scion xB, we’ll perform an alignment check first. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Scion’s recommended measurements. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Scion xB

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Scion xB alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease your 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 2011 Scion xB: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or squealing tires. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your xB if your wheel alignment needs attention.

Let’s talk numbers: Scion xB wheel alignment might be more budget-friendly than you think. Over the years, it could actually save you money.

Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs.
