About this job

Potholes, curbs and new suspension parts can knock your wheels out of line, which wears tires fast and makes the vehicle pull. A four-wheel alignment sets the angles back to the manufacturer's spec using a computerized rack, so it's done at a garage – bring your vehicle in.

You get a before-and-after printout of the measurements.

Questions about wheel alignment

How long does wheel alignment take?

Usually about 1 hour. Your mechanic will tell you if your vehicle needs longer.

Can it be done at my home?

No – this job needs a lift or workshop equipment, so it's done at a local garage. Choose "I'll bring it in", pick a garage near you and drop the car off in a morning or afternoon window.

Is the price fixed?

Yes. The price on your quote is what you pay. If the mechanic finds something else, they'll explain it and give you a separate price – nothing extra is done without your OK.

Is the work guaranteed?

Confirm your mechanic's parts and labour warranty before booking. See our warranty and repair concerns page for more information.
