Frequently Asked Questions

How often should you get a four wheel alignment?

• Generally every 12,000–15,000 miles or at least once a year for typical driving, whichever comes first.
• Get an alignment whenever you install new tires, have suspension work done, or after hitting a curb or large pothole.
• Regular alignments reduce uneven tire wear and extend tire life, delivering clear immediate and long-term savings compared with replacing tires prematurely.
• Repairs covered under warranty must be performed at a certified dealership to maintain coverage and ensure OEM parts and procedures are used.

Why is an alignment important for a 2026 GMC Canyon and what are the benefits?

• Proper alignment corrects toe, camber, and caster to OEM specs so the Canyon tracks straight and steering is centered.
• Benefits include improved handling, safer braking, longer tire life, and improved fuel economy — all reducing total ownership costs.
• Dealer-performed alignments use calibrated equipment and factory-trained technicians, protecting warranty coverage and vehicle resale value.
• Choosing our dealership often costs less than independent shops when you factor in immediate service value and long-term savings from fewer premature repairs.

How do you know if your wheels need alignment?

• Common signs: the vehicle pulls to one side, steering wheel is off-center, uneven or rapid tire wear, or a vibration at certain speeds.
• Noticeable wandering, poor handling, or decreased fuel economy after hitting a pothole are triggers to book an inspection.
• Bring your 2026 GMC Canyon to our technicians for a quick diagnostic — early detection saves on tire and suspension costs over time.
