Why Is Volvo XC70 Alignment Important?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Volvo XC70’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. 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, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. Three good things happen as a result: you enjoy a smoother ride, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Bring your 2004 Volvo XC70 in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Volvo’s recommended measurements. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

When to Get Volvo XC70 Wheel Alignment

It’s wise to have your Volvo XC70 alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on your fuel efficiency, and could lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle if left unaddressed. You might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 2004 Volvo XC70: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, 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 XC70 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

Costs for Volvo XC70 Alignment Services

Volvo XC70 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. Proper wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 2004 Volvo XC70 wheel alignment estimate.
