If your car, truck or SUV is out of alignment, the consequences can be costly. For a fast, accurate check, let Prestige Tire & Auto Service Center do an inspection. We offer full auto repair serving New Paltz NY.
Alignment
If the wheels are out of alignment, it means they are not rolling perfectly upright and straight. Wheels can be tilted inward or outward. This can result in uneven wear on the tread. When the wheels aren't in alignment, the car is pulling against itself. This harms the transmission, which relies on engineering precision to accomplish gear changes. It harms the brakes, which cannot operate effectively if the tires are tilted and the tread is uneven. It harms the suspension, which is engineered with the expectation that weight will be distributed evenly across the chassis. Schedule an appointment.
Hunter Alignment
Fortunately, Prestige Tire & Auto Service Center utilizes Hunter Alignment equipment for accuracy and precision. This will accurately measure each wheel and determine exactly how to bring the vehicle back into the right condition. Once the vehicle is rolling straight again, it will relieve the stress on the tires, brakes, transmission, and chassis.
Inspection
Each time you put air in your tires, check the tread. Has it worn down evenly or are their strange dips or worn spots? If it is balding on one edge or there are places where the tread is worn, let us do an alignment check. Also, if you have had a minor fender bender, hit a curb, or driven over potholes, it is a good idea to have your alignment checked.
