How Does Subaru Forester Alignment Work?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Subaru Forester’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. When your car has 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 four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. Three good things happen as a result: your car handles better, the lifespan of your tires increases, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2022 Subaru Forester, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Subaru. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

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 cause premature wear on your car if not corrected. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 2022 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. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Forester dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My Subaru Forester?

On a budget? Subaru Forester wheel alignment might be more affordable than you think. Over the years, it could actually save you money. Appropriately aligned wheels can support increased tire lifespan and fuel efficiency, meaning you could get more miles out of the same tires or tank of gas. Optimal wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs in the future. Contact your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care for a no-hassle 2022 Subaru Forester wheel alignment estimate.
