Why Get an Alignment?
About every 6,000 miles you drive, you should get a wheel alignment. Over time, the different roads and surfaces you traverse are going to get your vehicle out of alignment. It could be potholes or uneven surfaces. Whatever it is, you want the wheels touching evenly. That gives you plenty of benefits. You get a smoother driver, and one that prevents your vehicle from pulling in either direction or feeling bumpy. It also helps ensure your fuel efficiency remains high as well. The improved steering plus long-lasting tires combine together to give you the ideal drive as they all touch the road evenly, and this leads to less tread wear.
We are here to perform alignment services for those in Medford and can help you get the right alignment completed for your Honda or any other make and model. Doing this regularly is going to help make sure that your vehicle doesn't get so far out of alignment that it could lead to serious repair needs down the line.

Overview of Wheel Alignments, Their Importance, and When to Get Them
There's a lot to keep in mind when it comes to vehicle ownership and service intervals, but the team at Lithia Honda in Medford is here to help you stay on top of it all. Wheel alignments are one of those service tasks that can be easy to forget about, but regular alignments are key to better driving experiences. Read on for more details about wheel alignments and why to visit our Honda service center for them.
Importance of Wheel Alignments
Misalignment of your wheels causes a range of issues with the tires, steering, and suspension systems. The actual alignment that is off is in the suspension, and bumps, potholes, and other road issues are more likely to damage your suspension if your alignment is off. Wheel alignments ensure that your vehicle's suspension is set to the right alignment, which means less rapid tire wear, better protection of the suspension, and an overall smoother driving experience.
When to Get a Wheel Alignment
Different brands and models have different intervals for their wheel alignments, but the most common suggestion is to check the wheel alignment every year or every other oil change. Alignments are easy to check, so let us know if you want us to look to make sure that your alignment is correct.
How to Know When You Need an Alignment
There are some warning signs that it's time for a wheel alignment. Potholes and other bumps can also throw off your alignment so be sure to look at for the following signs if you've recently hit one.
