When your GMC Terrain, Buick Enclave, or GMC Sierra first rolled out of the factory, its wheels were all perfectly aligned according to the precise angles set by General Motors engineers. However, things start to change once the rubber meets the road. As you drive, you will run over countless small bumps and jolts in the road that may gradually knock your wheels out of alignment. Small bumps aren’t the only thing you need to worry about. If you run over a curb, hit a particularly big pothole, or get into a crash (even just a minor fender bender), your wheels may quickly become knocked out of alignment.
When you make the short drive from Hamtramck, Michigan to LaFontaine Buick GMC of Dearborn for an all-wheel alignment, our technicians will inspect all four wheels on your vehicle. They’ll check the suspension elements to ensure there is no damage; they will then check the camber, toe, and caster angles. These angles will tell our expert techs how near or far your wheels are to perfect alignment. If the wheels need to be adjusted, we will use high-quality precision instruments to align them.
A majority of vehicles can benefit from all-wheel alignment. While it is possible to have a two-wheel alignment performed instead, this is generally only meant for vehicles with a solid rear axle. If your Buick or GMC model has independent rear suspension, it will need to have all four wheels aligned.
Since misaligned wheels can be uncomfortable, unsafe, and expensive, we recommend having your alignment inspected once a year — or more often, if needed. Come to LaFontaine Buick GMC of Dearborn for all-wheel alignment service near Westland, Michigan, if you notice your vehicle pulling to the side, the steering wheel resting crookedly, or your tires wearing down unevenly.
