What Can I Expect with Volvo V70 Alignment?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Volvo V70's suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. In an alignment service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by Volvo. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. 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 treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. When you bring in your 1998 Volvo V70, we’ll perform an alignment check first. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Volvo. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When to Get Volvo V70 Wheel Alignment

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Volvo V70 alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and could lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle if left unaddressed. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 1998 Volvo V70: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, excessive wear on only one tire, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or tires that squeal frequently. You won’t see any warning lights on your V70 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.

Volvo V70 Alignment Questions

  • Are there road conditions that can hurt my Volvo V70 alignment? Potholes and uneven roads can knock your car out of alignment, so stay aware of the road ahead and adjust your speed (or avoid these obstacles whenever it’s safely possible).
  • How can I protect new Volvo V70 tires? 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.
  • When should you get a wheel alignment for your V70? Check your V70 owner's manual for Volvo's recommended interval. It's generally a good idea to check your alignment every 6,000 miles or 6 months, depending on which comes first.
