How Does Volvo XC40 Alignment Work?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Volvo XC40's suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. When your car has 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 the system is aligned to Volvo specifications, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. This gives you several benefits: your car handles better, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2020 Volvo XC40, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Volvo’s recommended measurements. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your Volvo XC40

It's a good idea to have your Volvo XC40 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 need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 2020 Volvo XC40: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or squealing tires. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your XC40 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.
