Different Services for Different Situations

Understanding the distinction between alignment checking and alignment service helps you make informed decisions about your vehicle care. An alignment check is purely diagnostic - we measure your current wheel angles and identify any problems.

If the check reveals significant alignment issues, we can perform alignment service, which involves adjusting your suspension components to restore proper wheel angles. However, not every vehicle needs adjustment after a check.



Our Gates technicians will explain your results clearly and help you understand whether immediate service is necessary, can be postponed for a few months, or isn't needed at all.

How Proper Alignment Saves Money

Maintaining correct wheel alignment provides real financial benefits for Monroe County drivers. Your tires will wear evenly, often lasting 20-30% longer than they would with alignment problems. For families watching their budgets, that extended tire life means substantial savings.

Proper alignment also reduces rolling resistance, which improves fuel economy. When your wheels work together efficiently instead of fighting each other, your engine doesn't have to work as hard to maintain speed. Better gas mileage helps offset alignment service costs over time.



Most importantly, correct alignment ensures your vehicle handles predictably. When you need to avoid road hazards or navigate safely in winter conditions, properly aligned wheels respond exactly as they should.

Alignment Questions and Professional Answers

Can I tell if my alignment is bad just by looking? While severe alignment problems might be visible as tilted wheels, most alignment issues require professional measurement equipment to detect accurately.

Will hitting a pothole really knock my alignment off? A significant pothole impact can definitely affect alignment, especially if it's hard enough to damage a wheel or tire. Even minor impacts can gradually shift alignment over time.



How do I know if I need front or four-wheel alignment? This depends on your vehicle's suspension design and which wheels can be adjusted. Our technicians will evaluate your specific vehicle and recommend the appropriate service.
