How Often Should Tire Alignment Be Done?

After a long period of driving, do you feel that the car will deviate to the left or right when driving in a straight line, and the float bar tire of the car body will wear on one side? If so, then your car may need to be aligned. Why does the above phenomenon occur? When is the alignment completed?

In fact, the main reason is that the vehicle is often impacted by many uneven roads, potholes, and puddle covers during driving, as well as the wear of chassis components. Under long-term vibration and shaking, the mechanical position of the suspension and tires set by the original factory will change. When the angle deviates, the above situation will occur.

If the tire alignment of the vehicle is lost and not re-aligned, over time, not only will the left and right float bars cause tire wear, but also resistance will be generated due to the different tire angles, resulting in unstable driving, increased fuel consumption, increased danger when driving at high speeds, increased driving fatigue, and damage to chassis components. So what is the time and frequency of tire alignment?

Here we can only give you a suggestion, that is, to do a tire alignment at least once a year or at least once every 10,000 kilometers. If the vehicle is used for a long time, it is best to do an alignment for taxis, trucks and other things every six to three months. In fact, seriously speaking, everyone's driving habits, time, mileage are different, and the road environment they travel on may also be different. Therefore, if the following situations occur, it means that you need help to align your car.
How often should a tire alignment be performed?
1. The steering wheel is not straight when the vehicle is driving on a flat road;
2. The vehicle may slip to the left or right when driving straight on a flat road;
3. The tire wear is abnormal and severe;
4. The body may jump unsteadily;
5. The steering wheel will sway from side to side;
6. There is buoyancy during driving;
7. The vehicle collides;
8. When replacing chassis components such as suspension, steering system, tripod or connecting rod;
In addition, when your vehicle is driving at high speed, the steering wheel may shake, which may indicate that the wheel needs to be balanced.
