Correct wheel alignment guarantees that the geometry of the wheels meets the requirements of the vehicles original state, improving handling and stability on the road. When a vehicle’s wheels are out of alignment, the steering and suspension components are put under extra strain, which not only increases wear, but shortens their total lifespan. Uneven tyre wear can result in pulling to one side and vibrations at higher speeds which can lead to a range of handling concerns.
According to a recent survey carried out by the DVSA (Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency), statistics demonstrate that for the months between April 2021 through March 2022, an average of 120 cars (or 9.28% of all vehicles) presented significant suspension issues, while 990 vehicles (or 6.31% of all vehicles) had a variety of tyre-related issues due to poor wheel alignment. This means that almost 5 million of the 32.9 million licenced vehicles on UK roads have suspension or tyre-related problems.
These staggering statistics highlight the importance of ensuring that your workshop is well equipped to handle wheel alignment related tasks to capitalise on this current trend.
