FRONT END WHEEL ALIGNMENT: Front-end wheel alignment refers to the angle and orientation of the wheels relative to each other and the vehicle’s frame. A properly aligned vehicle will have all four wheels perpendicular to the ground and parallel to each other. Front-end wheel alignment includes three primary measurements: camber, caster, and toe.

• Camber refers to the angle of the wheels when viewed from the front or rear of the vehicle.

• Caster refers to the angle of the steering axis when viewed from the side of the vehicle.

• Toe refers to the angle of the wheels when viewed from above.

WHY IS FRONT END WHEEL ALIGNMENT IMPORTANT? • Improved Handling - Proper alignment ensures that all four tires make consistent and even contact with the road, providing better handling and stability.

• Increased Fuel Efficiency - When tires are properly aligned, they roll more easily and require less energy to move, resulting in improved fuel efficiency.

• Longer Tire Life - Proper alignment ensures that tires wear evenly, extending their lifespan and reducing the need for replacement.

• Safer Driving - Correct alignment ensures that your vehicle handles predictably and can respond to emergency maneuvers quickly and effectively, improving safety.

WHEN TO GET FRONT END WHEEL ALIGNMENT CHECKED It is recommended to have your vehicle's front end wheel alignment checked at least once a year or every 10,000 miles, whichever comes first.

However, there are several signs that may indicate the need for an alignment check: • Uneven tire wear - Uneven tire wear can be a sign of improper alignment and should be checked immediately.

• Pulling or drifting - If your vehicle pulls to one side or drifts, even when driving on a straight road, it may indicate an alignment issue.

• Steering wheel off-center - If your steering wheel is not centered when driving straight, it may indicate an alignment problem.

• Vibrations - Vibrations in the steering wheel or through the vehicle can indicate an alignment issue or other mechanical problem.
