Keeping Murrieta Residents Safe and Saving Money with Regular Wheel Alignments

Proper wheel alignment means that all four wheels are going in exactly the same direction. It’s easier than you might think to get your wheels out of alignment, which is why a regular wheel alignment check at a Murrieta auto mechanic is a good idea. Something as simple as bumping a curb, running over a pothole, or driving on uneven roads can affect your wheel alignment over time as much as getting into an auto accident.

Wheels that are out of alignment can lead to uneven wear, causing you to have to replace your tires more often, or even blowouts, which can be very dangerous. But bad alignment can affect more than just your wheels. It can also have damaging effects on your vehicle’s steering systems and suspension, both of which can be costly to repair—definitely more than the cost to have your tires regularly aligned at Inland Auto in Murrieta!

Some signs that your vehicle might be in need of a wheel alignment are:

• Your vehicle “pulls” to one side or the other
• Your steering wheel is off-center when you are driving straight
• Your tires are wearing out more quickly than they should, or wearing out unevenly
• Steering wheel vibrations

If you notice any of these signs, or if you have been in an accident, however minor, you should bring your vehicle in sooner rather than later for an alignment check. A realignment now can save you from having to do costly repairs to your vehicle down the road, and it can also prevent accidents, since wheels that are out of alignment can cause difficulty in steering or handling.

We’ll check your vehicle’s steering and suspension systems and do an alignment reading. If adjustments need to be made, we’ll make sure they are done according to your vehicle’s specifications, which vary from vehicle to vehicle.
