A wheel or tire alignment is when a technician adjusts the suspension on a vehicle to ensure that the angle of the tires is correct. It’s not actually adjusting the tires themselves. You will need to have a professional conduct this work for you to make sure that it’s done properly.
A transmission inspection is a key part of preventative maintenance. It can tell you when you need service, such as a fluid change, various repairs, or replacement if your transmission is damaged or failing. The most important information an inspection tells you is the condition of your transmission. By knowing in advance if you need service or replacement, you prevent situations where your transmission fails while driving or away from home. This helps keep you safe and avoid unneeded expenses such as a tow home.
A four-wheel alignment is when the mechanic adjusts all of the wheels on the vehicle. This is usually required on all-wheel-drive automobiles that have independent suspension systems on them. You might get a front caster and toe adjustment and a toe and camber adjustment on the rear wheels.
A professional should do an inspection of your wheels. They’ll be able to tell through a few key signs whether your vehicle needs a wheel alignment.
The technician will take a look at the toe, camber, and caster of each tire. The toes may be turned inward or outward when you view them from above; you don’t want your tire toes to be angled inward or outward on your vehicle. The camber involves looking at the angles from the front. If there’s too much of an outward or inward tilt, which is known as positive and negative camber, this will need an adjustment. The caster is the angle of the steering axis when it’s viewed from the vehicle’s side and it helps when it comes to cornering, stability, and steering.
