4-Wheel Alignment in Chatham, NJ

Bauer Automotive specializes in 4-wheel computerized alignment.

Alignment is a crucial maintenance procedure for vehicles to guarantee all four wheels are properly aligned according to the manufacturer's specifications. This precise adjustment helps to optimize the vehicle’s handling, stability, and overall performance. Here’s why it’s important:

1. Improved Tire Life: A computerized alignment helps your tires distribute wear evenly, which maximizes tire longevity and saves money on tires in the long run.
2. Better Fuel Efficiency: Misalignment causes resistance, forcing the engine to work harder to move the vehicle. A proper alignment reduces rolling resistance, improving fuel economy.
3. Enhanced Vehicle Handling: Misalignment can result in poor handling, such as the vehicle pulling to one side or experiencing difficulty staying straight. Computerized alignment ensures that the wheels are properly oriented, providing a smoother and more responsive driving experience.
4. Increased Safety: Proper alignment keeps the vehicle stable, reducing the risk of accidents due to unpredictable handling or loss of control by aligning the tires to maintain proper contact with the road.
5. Prevention of Suspension Damage: By aligning the wheels correctly, you reduce wear and tear on the suspension system, extending its lifespan.
