Don't align cars properly Step 3. Tell people who notice their cars pulling that it's because the roads aren't flat I SEE YOU BIG TIRES. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's super subtle don't worry about it. How would you define subtle in this sense? It's not like I have to have my hand on the wheel the whole time fighting it, but If I let go of the wheel for maybe 6-8 seconds (at around 55 mph) it will drift out of my lane. In fact, some left turns have just the right amount of curve that I can stay in my lane by just letting go of the wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on the "angle" of tilt. You have to be the best judge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if this happens in the right lane still would you suggest I take it back to the shop and ask them to look at it again? Like I said, it didn't use to be like this, so something is off, I just don't know if it's it alignment or something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You paid for the work, some follow up shouldn't be a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're really wondering, Firestone sells a lifetime service where they'll check your alignment for like $150. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LETSGOBROWNIES Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Did they do a full alignment or just the front end? Do you have an independent rear suspension that would require the rear as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
