There is a lot that goes into maintaining a high level of function for the vehicle that you drive. Along with being a careful and attentive driver, you also need to make sure that you keep up with all of the necessary vehicle maintenance. There are many different types of maintenance that are vital to ensuring that you get the most out of your vehicle and one of those services is Two or Four-Wheel Alignments. 

Proper Wheel Alignment Is Necessary For Safety - Tire Wear - Steering & Stopping 

Making sure that all four of your wheels are properly aligned will not only help to prolong the life of your tires by ensuring that they wear evenly, but it is important for maintaining proper steering capabilities, fun efficiency, proper suspension, and so much more. If your vehicle's wheels are not aligned properly, it can affect the way the entire vehicle operates which is not only damaging to the vehicle but also a safety risk. 

What Causes Wheel Misalignment? New Tires - Road Hazards - Minor Accidents

There are many circumstances that could cause your vehicle's alignment to be shifted. Having new tires put on your vehicle is one factor, which is why it is recommended that you have your wheels aligned at the same time that you have new vehicles put on. However, road hazards such as potholes, small accidents, and sharp turns can knock your vehicle out of alignment as well. Therefore, if you have recently had an encounter with a road hazard or a small fender bender then you should definitely have your alignment checked.
