How Vehicle Wheels Become Misaligned
Your wheels become knocked out of alignment by bumps and jolts as you drive. These can be bigger things, like if you hit a big pothole or run over a curb. However, the small jolts that come from daily driving can also wreak havoc on your vehicle’s alignment over time. When this happens, it’s often harder to notice; unlike with bigger bumps, this knocks your wheels out of alignment only a little bit at a time. This is why it’s a good idea to have your wheels’ alignment inspected annually.
