If your car pulls to one side when you brake, it could mean an alignment or suspension issue.
Keep your wheels straight and your ride smooth. Our experienced technicians handle everything from front end repair to precision wheel alignment in Phoenix.
If your steering wheel pulls or shakes, or the car drifts, your alignment or front end may be off. Uneven tire wear and vibration at speed mean components need attention.
Our vehicle alignment services start with an inspection of your steering and suspension. We replace worn parts and align the wheels to factory specs, improving handling, tire life and fuel efficiency.
Our Phoenix alignment shop performs 4 wheel alignment, tie rod replacement, ball joint replacement and steering repair on Ford and Ram trucks, Jeep SUVs, and Subaru and Mazda cars. Car alignment or truck alignment, the result is straighter tracking and longer tire life.

This is why we inspect the full front end before the vehicle ever goes on the alignment rack: ball joints, tie rod ends, steering linkage, track bar and control arm bushings. A front end alignment set on worn parts will not hold, so a control arm replacement or tie rod replacement comes first when the parts call for it. Lifting a vehicle also changes caster and pinion angles that a standard auto alignment cannot correct without the right adjustable components.
If your lifted truck or 4×4 wanders on the freeway, wears the inside edges of the tires, feels loose in the steering, or has developed the front-end shake Jeep owners call death wobble, bring it to Pete Kelley’s in Phoenix and we will show you exactly what we find. Loose steering can also mean power steering repair or a rack and pinion replacement, and we check for both. We have been on North Central Avenue since 1972, and we inspect the front end and suspension before we quote anything.
A precise front end alignment in Phoenix improves handling and extends tire life across the Valley. If your car still pulls or vibrates, have our team check your shocks and suspension, your brakes or your tire balance. Our guide to the signs of bad alignment explains what to watch for.

The most common cause is wheel alignment, but uneven tire pressure, unevenly worn tires or a sticking brake caliper can also cause a pull. We check tire pressure and wear first, then measure alignment, so the fix matches the cause.
Check it once a year, whenever you buy new tires, after hitting a curb or large pothole, and after any steering or suspension repair. A wheel alignment in Phoenix costs far less than replacing a set of tires worn out by misalignment.
Wear on the inside or outside edges usually means misalignment. Wear in the center means overinflation; wear on both edges means underinflation. Cupped or scalloped wear points to worn shocks or struts. The wear pattern tells us where to look.
Shaking at highway speed is usually caused by unbalanced tires, a bent wheel or worn tie rods or ball joints, not alignment alone. We road-test, balance the tires and inspect the front end to find the source.

The wheel alignment cost depends on the vehicle and on whether worn parts must be replaced first. We inspect the front end, then give you a written price before any work begins.
