How Does Subaru Forester Alignment Work?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Subaru Forester's suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. In an alignment 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 the system is aligned to Subaru specifications, 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 2016 Subaru Forester, we’ll perform an alignment check first. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Subaru recommendations. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

When Should I Get Subaru Forester Wheel Alignment?

It's a good idea to have your Subaru Forester alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Believe it or not, even one misaligned wheel can reduce 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 2016 Subaru Forester: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or noticeable squealing noises from your 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.
