Signs You May Need Chassis Alignment
Not sure if your vehicle needs alignment? Look out for these common warning signs:
Vehicle pulling to one side
Your car drifts left or right when driving straight.
Uneven tyre wear
One tyre wears faster than the others, or wear patterns are irregular.
Off-centre steering wheel
Your steering wheel is not centred when driving straight.
Vibration in the steering wheel
You feel shaking or vibration while driving.
Increased fuel consumption
Misalignment creates drag, reducing fuel efficiency.
Wandering steering
The steering feels vague or unresponsive.
Whether you run a single van or a full fleet of trucks, we can help. Misaligned commercial vehicles cost you money in:
- Premature tyre wear
- Increased fuel consumption
- Driver fatigue and safety risks
- Reduced vehicle lifespan

Common Causes of Chassis Misalignment
Misalignment doesn’t always happen overnight. It can develop gradually from everyday driving. Here are the most common causes:
-
The Driver
Hitting kerbs, potholes, or speed bumps at speed can knock your chassis out of alignment. Even minor impacts add up over time. -
The Road
Ireland's roads can be tough on vehicles. Uneven surfaces, potholes, and debris can all affect your chassis alignment. -
Work Components in the Vehicle
Worn suspension parts, steering components, or bushes can cause misalignment. If these components are worn, alignment alone won't fix the problem, we'll advise on the full solution. -
Accident or Collision
Even a minor collision can shift your chassis. If you've been in an accident, it's always worth having your alignment checked.
