Debunking Wheel Alignment Myths

Why Hiring a Professional Mechanic Matters

Proper wheel alignment is crucial for ensuring safe driving, optimal vehicle performance, and prolonged tire life. However, misconceptions about wheel alignment lead many vehicle owners to overlook this critical maintenance task. Here, we will debunk some of the most common myths and emphasise the importance of entrusting the job to one of the most trusted experts in wheel alignment Essex has to offer.

Myth 1: Wheel Alignment Is Only Necessary When Tires Are Replaced

Fact: While tire replacement might coincide with a wheel alignment, it’s not the only cause for it. Regular wheel alignment checks are essential to detect misalignments caused by everyday driving conditions such as: 

  • Potholes
  • Rough roads
  • Driving over kerbs 

Ignoring alignment issues can lead to uneven tire wear, reduced fuel efficiency, and compromised vehicle handling.

Myth 2: Wheel Alignment Is A Simple Diy Task

Fact: You might be tempted to attempt a DIY wheel alignment. However, aligning wheels correctly involves precise measurements and requires technical knowledge of suspension systems and alignment angles. A professional mechanic has the expertise and specialised equipment to carry out the job accurately. Some vehicle maintenance can be done at home, but for this, you should always rely on the experts.

Myth 3: Visual Inspection Is Enough To Determine Wheel Misalignment

Fact: While visual inspection can reveal obvious damage or misalignment in extreme cases, it is not an accurate way to assess a vehicle’s precise alignment angles. Modern vehicles have intricate suspension systems and require advanced alignment equipment for accurate measurements. Professional mechanics use computerised alignment machines to do so.

Myth 4: Wheel Alignment Is An Unnecessary Expense

Fact: Some vehicle owners believe that wheel alignment is nothing more than an optional maintenance task and skip it to save money. However, neglecting alignment can lead to bigger costs in the long run. Misaligned wheels cause uneven tire wear, leading to premature tire replacement. Additionally, poor alignment puts unnecessary strain on suspension components, leading to you forking out for expensive repairs.

Myth 5: All Mechanics Can Perform Wheel Alignment Equally Well

Fact: Not all mechanics have expertise in wheel alignment. Properly aligning wheels requires specialised skills, along with ongoing training to keep up with advancements in alignment technology. The team at Tyre Smart have experience in wheel alignment and can ensure precise adjustments. They have a deep understanding of any potential alignment-related issues too – giving you total peace of mind.

Myth 6: New Vehicles Don’t Require Wheel Alignment

Fact: Although new vehicles leave the factory with aligned wheels, transportation and handling processes during delivery can cause misalignments. It’s essential to have a wheel alignment check shortly after purchasing your car to ensure that it meets all current safety and performance standards.
