Why Is Volvo S80 Alignment Important?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Volvo S80’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. 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 Volvo intended. When your system is aligned to the measurements that Volvo specifies for your vehicle, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. Three good things happen as a result: you enjoy a smoother ride, the lifespan of your tires increases, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. When you bring in your 2000 Volvo S80, we’ll perform an alignment check first. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Volvo recommendations. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

When to Get Volvo S80 Wheel Alignment

It's a good idea to have your Volvo S80 alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on your fuel efficiency, and over time can lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle. You might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 2000 Volvo S80: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or tires that squeal frequently. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your S80 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

Costs for Volvo S80 Alignment Services

Let’s talk numbers: Volvo S80 wheel alignment might be more budget-friendly than you think. Over the life of your car, it could help you save on overall costs. Correctly aligned wheels can help boost fuel efficiency and increase the lifespan of your tires, so you get more miles out of the same tank of gas and set of 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 2000 Volvo S80 wheel alignment estimate.

Volvo S80 Alignment Questions

  • Why does my 2000 Volvo S80 steering feel different? Don't wait for an 'alignment light' on your dashboard. There isn't one. Getting a professional alignment check is the easiest way to know if your S80 alignment is off.
  • Are there road conditions that can hurt my Volvo S80 alignment? When it’s safe to do so, avoid driving over potholes or hitting curbs. These road obstacles can wreak havoc on your wheel alignment, as can wear and tear from rough road conditions.
  • I just bought new Volvo S80 tires. Do I need an alignment? Protect your investment with a wheel alignment. No one wants to replace tires sooner than necessary. Help your new tires wear evenly from day one, with a wheel alignment.
  • How often does your S80 need a wheel alignment? Typically, your alignment should be checked every 6,000 miles or 6 months, whichever comes first. Double-check your S80 owner’s manual for Volvo's exact recommended schedule.
