Why Wheel Alignment Service Matters 

Advanced car safety features like automatic emergency braking and lane-keep assist are nothing short of modern marvels. But what do you do when it feels like your car is driving itself? That's not a trick question; if your wheels are out of alignment, you may be fighting your car, not driving it - and that can make you less safe.  

Wheel alignment is one of the most important reasons you can visit Heritage Volkswagen Parkville for Volkswagen service near Baltimore.  

What Is Wheel Alignment, Anyway?  

Viewed from outside, your wheels probably look fine. Relative to other parts of your car, however, they might be anything but. And it doesn't take a big - or even visible - difference for your car to be out of alignment. Something only needs to be off by a couple of degrees to make a big difference in the way your new Volkswagen vehicle handles. So, if it doesn't feel quite right, it's a good idea to visit your local Volkswagen dealership for service.  

When to Visit for Wheel Alignment  

When you visit our service center, we usually inspect for visual signs of poor alignment. A car that isn't properly aligned will usually have one tire, or the tires on one side, more worn than the others. But there are other signs you're likely to notice long before you visit. If your car tends to drift to one side, or if you find yourself keeping the wheel off-center to keep the car in its lane, that's usually an alignment problem. You may also hear strange sounds, like a rattle or squeal, when you turn.  

But keep in mind that each automotive problem you notice can have a few different causes. Sometimes an SUV can be overloaded, or loaded unevenly. Maybe you've been neglecting your tires' pressure and they're uneven. Maybe your brakes need adjustment. In any case, visit us. We'll properly identify the source of the problem and make sure it's fixed right the first time!
