Why Professional Wheel Alignment Matters for Your Vehicle 

The Critical Role of Proper Alignment

Proper wheel alignment is essential for both your safety and your vehicle's performance. When your wheels are correctly aligned, your car handles as the manufacturer intended, your tires wear evenly, and you enjoy better fuel efficiency. At Bock Automotive in Pequannock, our alignment specialists understand that even minor misalignments can lead to significant problems down the road.


Signs You Need Wheel Alignment Service

Recognizing alignment problems early can save you from costly repairs later. Watch for these warning signs:


  • Your vehicle pulls to one side while driving straight
  • Uneven or rapid tire wear on the edges
  • Your steering wheel is crooked when driving straight
  • You notice vibration or wandering while driving
  • Your tires squeal when turning


The Benefits of Regular Alignment Checks

Regular wheel alignment services at Bock Automotive offer numerous advantages:



  • Extended tire life by preventing premature and uneven wear
  • Improved fuel economy by reducing rolling resistance
  • Enhanced driving safety with proper vehicle handling
  • Reduced strain on suspension components
  • Smoother, more comfortable driving experience

Our Comprehensive Wheel Alignment Process

Advanced Diagnostic Technology

At Bock Automotive in Pequannock, NJ, we utilize the latest Hunter computerized alignment equipment—the same precision technology used by dealerships, but at a more affordable price. This advanced system allows our technicians to measure your vehicle's alignment angles with pinpoint accuracy.


Expert Evaluation and Inspection

Before making any adjustments, our experienced technicians perform a thorough inspection of your vehicle's steering and suspension components. This crucial step ensures that any worn parts that might affect alignment are identified and addressed before the alignment service.


Precision Alignment Adjustments

Our wheel alignment service includes precise adjustments to three critical angles:


  • Camber: The inward or outward tilt of your wheels when viewed from the front
  • Caster: The angle of your steering axis that affects stability and cornering
  • Toe: The inward or outward positioning of your tires when viewed from above


Comprehensive Testing and Verification

After completing the alignment, we road test your vehicle to verify that all adjustments are correct and your vehicle handles properly. You'll receive a detailed alignment report showing before and after measurements, giving you complete transparency about the work performed.

 When to Get a Wheel Alignment in Pequannock 

After Hitting Obstacles

North Jersey roads, especially after harsh winters, are notorious for potholes. If you've recently hit a pothole, curb, or other road hazard in Pequannock, Pompton Plains, or Wayne, your alignment may have been knocked out of specification.


With New Tire Installation

When investing in new tires at Bock Automotive, a wheel alignment is the perfect complementary service to ensure maximum tire life and performance. Driving on misaligned wheels can rapidly wear down even brand-new tires.


Following Suspension Work

Any work performed on your vehicle's suspension components—such as replacing struts, shocks, or control arms—necessitates a wheel alignment to ensure everything is working in harmony.


As Regular Maintenance

For optimal vehicle performance, we recommend checking your alignment at least annually or every 15,000 miles for drivers in Pequannock Township and surrounding areas like Lincoln Park, Pompton Lakes, and Riverdale.

Common Wheel Alignment Questions

  • How much does a wheel alignment cost in Pequannock, NJ?

    Alignment pricing depends on your vehicle type and whether you need a two-wheel or four-wheel alignment. Contact us at (973) 320-7520 for current pricing specific to your vehicle.

  • How long does a wheel alignment take?

    Most wheel alignments at Bock Automotive are completed within 45-60 minutes. However, if we discover worn suspension components that need replacement before alignment, additional time may be required.

  • How often should I get my wheels aligned?

    For most vehicles driving in Pequannock and surrounding areas, we recommend checking your alignment annually or every 15,000 miles. However, if you frequently drive on rough roads or hit potholes, more frequent checks may be necessary.

  • Can I align my wheels myself?

    Wheel alignment requires specialized computerized equipment and technical expertise. DIY methods cannot provide the precision necessary for proper alignment, which is measured in fractions of degrees.

  • Will insurance cover wheel alignment?

    In most cases, wheel alignment is considered maintenance and not covered by insurance. However, if misalignment resulted from an accident, your coverage might apply. We're happy to provide documentation for insurance claims when applicable.

  • What's the difference between balancing and alignment?

    Wheel balancing corrects weight distribution around the tire and wheel assembly, while alignment adjusts the angles of the wheels relative to each other and the vehicle's frame. Both services are important but address different aspects of your vehicle's performance.

  • Can alignment issues cause my steering wheel to shake?

    While alignment problems can cause steering issues, a shaking steering wheel is more commonly associated with tire balancing problems. Our diagnostic process will determine the exact cause of your steering concerns.
