Kia Wheel Alignment Services in St. Louis, MO

If you continue to drive when your wheels are misaligned, it can cause other problems mechanically. When tires are misaligned, it puts added strain on the CV joints and the axles. Also, the motor must work harder lowering fuel efficiency. Our team at Suntrup Kia can quickly get your wheels aligned. Many of our customers make the short drive from the neighboring communities of Kirkwood and Webster Groves, MO for quality Kia service.

Why Are Wheel Alignments So Important for My Kia?

When a vehicle is misaligned, you’ll have to oversteer to keep the vehicle on the right path. Oversteering, though, forces the engine to work harder. It will also cause the tires to have unusual wear patterns. If unattended, they may begin to bulge. An alignment is a simple maintenance task that will protect your engine and tires. When you come in for an alignment, it’s a good idea to also have your tires rotated.

 

Certified Alignment Services We Offer:

  • Two-Wheel Alignment – Also known as a front-end alignment, two-wheel alignment is generally performed on vehicles with a solid rear axle; it involves inspecting and adjusting the camber, toe, and caster angles on the front wheels.

  • Four-Wheel Alignment – Vehicles with independent or semi-independent rear suspensions will need to have the camber, toe, and caster angles inspected and adjusted on all four wheels; this is also called an all-wheel alignment.

What Does a Wheel Alignment Do for My Kia?

One of the last procedures at the Kia manufacturing facility is to align the wheels. Using specialized equipment, each tire is moved into the correct place and position in relation to the other tires. This includes positioning them into the ideal angle. When a vehicle is driven, though, the tires can be nudged out of this position. Potholes and parking curbs are the biggest culprits for pushing tires out of alignment. If your vehicle starts pulling to one side, you’ll know that the tires are out of alignment. A two-wheel alignment or a four-wheel alignment will get the tires back to the right position.

Delaying an Alignment

Don’t delay an alignment because it can cause additional problems for your Kia. When its time for a regularly scheduled alignment inspection, take the time to get it done. If your vehicle is misaligned, it will only get worse the longer it is driven.
