How Does Subaru Legacy Alignment Work?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Subaru Legacy’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 system is aligned to the measurements that Subaru specifies for your vehicle, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. This gives you several benefits: your car handles better, the lifespan of your tires increases, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. When you bring in your 2012 Subaru Legacy, 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 to Get Subaru Legacy Wheel Alignment

It’s wise to have your Subaru Legacy alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and could cause premature wear on your car if not corrected. You might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 2012 Subaru Legacy: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or tires that squeal frequently. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your Legacy dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

How Much Does an Alignment for Subaru Legacy Cost?

Subaru Legacy wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might think. In the long run, it could actually help you save money. Correctly aligned wheels can help boost fuel efficiency and increase the lifespan of your tires, so you can fill up less often, plus get more miles out of your tires. Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 2012 Subaru Legacy wheel alignment estimate.
