The Experts in Your Car’s Tires and Wheels
A wheel alignment is an important service provided by our auto repair shop serving Scarborough, Ontario. The objective is to align your car’s wheels to point in the same direction as the steering wheel, sitting perpendicular to the ground and parallel to each other. This ensures accurate steering, smooth directional changes, and long-lasting tires. Level Auto utilizes precise measuring technology to adjust the angles of a wheel back to manufacturer specifications: camber, caster, and toe. Toe refers to the angle at which a car wheel points inward or outward relative to the side of the wheel well. Camber is the angle to which a wheel points inward or outward relative to the top of the wheel well. Caster is the steering axis angle when viewing the vehicle from the side. If your vehicle is toe-in or toe-out, negative or positive camber, or negative or positive caster, it will require professional alignment service.
Signs of Misalignment
If a wheel alignment is faulty in your car, truck, or SUV, there are a few side effects. One is that your car’s tires might exhibit irregular or excessive wear because they aren’t in full contact with the road. Your tires may even give off a squealing sound. Also, the more out of alignment the vehicle’s wheels are, the more severe they’ll pull the car to the left or right (the direction depends on where the alignment is off). Similarly, your steering wheel may sit off-center if your wheels are misaligned, or you may experience noisy steering. However, we don’t recommend only waiting until you sense there may be something wrong to have your wheel alignment checked. We encourage inspection at least twice a year unless you’ve recently gotten new tires installed, lowered or lifted your vehicle, or replaced suspension parts. Wheels can come out of alignment after a collision or hard impact, such as hitting a curb or traveling over a speed bump too quickly.
