What Can I Expect with Scion xB Alignment?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Scion xB’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. 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 your suspension is aligned to Scion’s optimal measurements, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. Three good things happen as a result: you enjoy a smoother ride, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. When you bring in your 2013 Scion xB, we’ll perform an alignment check first. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Scion recommendations. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When Should I Get Scion xB Wheel Alignment?

It’s wise to have your Scion xB alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on your fuel efficiency, and could lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle if left unaddressed. You may need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 2013 Scion xB: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or squealing tires. You won’t see any warning lights on your xB dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.

Proper wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 2013 Scion xB wheel alignment estimate.
