How often should you get a four wheel alignment?

• We recommend an alignment at least once a year or every 12,000–15,000 miles, whichever comes first, as a baseline preventive maintenance step.
• Get an alignment sooner after hitting potholes, curbs, or after suspension or tire replacement to avoid uneven wear.
• Regular inspections during oil changes or tire services help identify alignment drift before it becomes costly.
• Service at a certified dealership ensures any warranty-covered adjustments are properly documented and performed to factory standards.

How do you know if your wheels need alignment?

• Common signs include pulling to one side, an off-center steering wheel, or uneven tire wear across the tread.
• Vibrations at highway speeds or a sensation that steering requires constant correction are also indicators.
• Declines in fuel efficiency or audible tire noise can hint at misalignment-related wear.
• If you see any symptoms, bring your 2024 Volvo XC90 to Park Place Volvo for a factory-standard inspection and clear estimate.
