Wheel Alignment

Keep Your Acura Model Running Smoothly with Professional Wheel Alignments

The more you drive, the more your car's wheel alignment can gradually shift off-kilter. Poor wheel alignment can cause a variety of problems, ranging from premature tire wear to problems with your suspension, so having your alignment checked and adjusted periodically is important if you're looking to get the most out of your Acura vehicle. We can tend to your wheel alignment needs here at Swickard Acura of Thousand Oaks, whether your car needs a checkup or your wheel alignment requires adjustment.

Benefits of Regular Wheel Alignments

Your wheel alignment might require a check after 6,000 miles or so. You might need a wheel alignment sooner if you frequently drive on rough, bumpy roads or have run-ins with curbs or potholes. Keeping up with wheel alignments can help your tires last longer and improve handling, allowing you to get more of the smooth, luxurious driving experience that you expect from your Acura model and prevent excessive tire wear.

How Wheel Alignments Work

The goal of a wheel alignment is to ensure that your wheels are working together and going in the same direction. To achieve this, our team of experts at our Acura service center adjusts the camber, caster, and toe.

The camber deals with the outward or inward tilt of the tires from head-on, the caster deals with the front or rear tilt of your tires from the side, and the toe deals with the tilt of the tires when viewed from above. Ensuring that all these components are properly aligned requires specialized equipment that our professional service technicians have access to here at our dealership, so we're ready to help you get everything pointed in the right direction.

When to Get a Wheel Alignment

We recommend getting your alignment checked every 6,000 miles to see if your car needs more attention. If you notice unusual patterns of wear on your tires, your wheel alignment might need adjustment.
