Honda Alignment Service in Middletown, RI

All About Alignment

Misaligned Wheels

The manufacturer sets tires and wheels on a Honda at specific angles. When one or more tires and wheels do not point in a direction set by the correct angle, they become misaligned. This problem is not minor and could cause dangerous problems when driving.

Driving on Misaligned Wheels

Several signs may indicate a vehicle's wheels are misaligned. When a Honda pulls to the right or left, the issue could be the wheels. Pulling is not a minor issue, as it may factor into a collision. The driver must constantly address the issue of pulling, and one slip could lead to a crash.

If the Honda's steering wheel vibrates, misaligned wheels could be the culprit. Operating a shaking or vibrating steering wheel is not optimal when driving near Providence.

Tire Wear

Misaligned wheels could result in uneven tire wear, with some tires wearing out sooner than others. That would necessitate replacing those tires ahead of their normal schedule. Worn tires with low treads contribute to poor fuel economy and are prone to blowouts. Blowouts might result in a collision.

Wheel Alignment Service

During a wheel alignment, one of our South Kingstown technicians will measure the wheel angles and compare the figures to Honda's specifications. If the technician discovers misalignments, work will commence setting the angles back to factory specs so you can drive safely on Dartmouth, MA roads.

The technician could also inspect the tires for wear and other problems. A wheel alignment appointment could also be a time to rotate and inspect tires. Contact us today to schedule an appointment at our dealership near Bristol for these services.
