How Does Subaru Forester Alignment Work?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Subaru Forester’s suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. 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 Subaru intended them to. When your suspension is aligned to Subaru’s optimal measurements, all of your tires experience equal pressure. Three good things happen as a result: your car handles better, the lifespan of your tires increases, and your suspension system experiences less strain. When you bring in your 2013 Subaru Forester, we’ll perform an alignment check first. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Subaru’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 Subaru Forester

It’s wise to have your Subaru Forester 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 might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 2013 Subaru Forester: pulling to the left or right, excessive wear on only one tire, 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 Forester dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.

How Much Does an Alignment for Subaru Forester Cost?

Subaru Forester wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might think. Over the life of your car, it could help you save on overall costs. Properly aligned wheels may help increase fuel efficiency and tire lifespan, so you can fill up less often, plus get more miles out of your tires. Proper wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs. Call a nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care to get an estimate for 2013 Subaru Forester wheel alignment costs today.
