Winter driving can be tough on your car, especially when it comes to your wheels. The combination of icy roads, hidden potholes, and snow-packed conditions can wreak havoc on your vehicle’s alignment. At Auto Specialty of Lafayette, Inc., we know how vital proper wheel alignment is for your car’s safety and performance. Here’s why you should schedule a post-winter wheel alignment check.
During the colder months, road hazards like potholes and uneven surfaces are common. Even a single hard hit on a pothole can knock your wheels out of alignment. Additionally, icy roads often lead to sliding, and the sudden impact of hitting curbs or hard braking can further disrupt your car’s alignment.
After winter, pay attention to these telltale signs of misalignment:
Proper wheel alignment ensures your tires wear evenly, extending their lifespan and saving you money. It also improves fuel efficiency by reducing the drag caused by misaligned wheels. Most importantly, a properly aligned vehicle handles better, keeping you and your passengers safer.
