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.

Local Roads & Climate
Hiram's diverse weather conditions, ranging from hot summers to icy winters, can significantly impact road conditions and affect your wheel alignment. The constant temperature fluctuations can lead to potholes and uneven pavement, increasing the potential for alignment issues. Furthermore, frequent driving on local highways such as State Route 92 can exacerbate these problems.
Ensuring regular alignment checks is crucial in maintaining the longevity and safety of your vehicle, especially with Hiram's unique road challenges. Adapting driving habits, such as slowing down on rough terrains and monitoring tire pressure, can help mitigate adverse effects on alignment in these conditions.

"This was my first fix with cba. All the technicians were friendly. I needed a shuttle since the service was going to take more than a day. They not only took me to and from home but to and from my dental appointment as well! Plus they give a 3 year/36K war"
