Why Is Subaru Forester Alignment Important?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Subaru Forester’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. During the 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 Subaru intended. When your system is aligned to the measurements that Subaru specifies for your vehicle, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. Three good things happen as a result: your ride is smoother, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and your suspension system experiences less strain. When you bring in your 2002 Subaru Forester, we’ll perform an alignment check first. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Subaru recommendations. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

When to Get Subaru Forester Wheel Alignment

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Subaru Forester alignment checked about 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 may need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 2002 Subaru Forester: pulling to the left or right, uneven or rapid tire wear, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or tires that squeal frequently. You won’t see any warning lights on your Forester dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.
