6 Signs Your Wheels are Out of Alignment
Your wheels can be knocked out of alignment due to poor road conditions, riding over potholes, or hitting the kerb. As a general rule, you should have your wheels aligned every 1 to 2 years – or at the first sign of misalignment.
Are My Wheels Misaligned?
Your wheels may be out of alignment if any of the following apply:
- The steering wheel vibrates
- The steering wheel feels loose
- Your car pulls to the side
- You notice abnormal or rapid tyre wear
- Your steering wheel is crooked when driving straight
- Your tyres squeal
You may be able to improve the issue by removing heavy items from your boot, maintaining optimal tyre pressure, and driving gently to avoid knocking your wheels out of alignment. However, if this doesn’t solve the problem, you will have to book a wheel alignment appointment at our local garage.
