What to Expect With an Alignment
1. Schedule Your Appointment
Whether scheduling online or over the phone be sure and let us know what you're experiencing so we can provide fast and accurate service advice.
2. Diagnostics and Inspections
Drop off your vehicle and the shop will get to work with inspections and diagnostics using the same equipment as the manufacturers to determine issues and next steps.
3. Digital Vehicle Inspection Report and Estimate
Following the diagnosis we will text you a digital vehicle inspection report, containing pictures and videos of our findings and recommendations.
4. Review and Approval
A service advisor will reach out to walk you through the findings and recommendations to determine how you would like to proceed, or you can approve work directly in your DVI.
5. Work Performed or Scheduled
Most work can be completed immediately, or scheduled based on parts and customer availability.
If you're concerned about the tread on your tires, we recommend the “penny test” to check your tread depth. Simply insert a penny into your tire's tread groove with Lincoln's head upside down and facing you. If you can see all of Lincoln's head, your tread depth is less than 2/32 inch and it's time to replace your tires.
The Importance of Proper Alignment in Phoenix
Phoenix’s unique climate, with its hot temperatures and monsoon seasons, can impact your vehicle’s alignment. Misalignment can lead to uneven tire wear, reduced fuel efficiency, and compromised handling. Regular alignment checks are essential for maintaining optimal vehicle performance and safety.
Considering the heat's impact on road materials, unexpected potholes and road shifts can occur, posing additional challenges for maintaining vehicle alignment. Furthermore, well-aligned vehicles contribute smoother driving experiences on Phoenix's bustling highways, helping you avoid potential hazards and ensuring stability while navigating both urban and rural roads.
