Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a four wheel alignment service take?

• Most four‑wheel alignments at our Dallas service center take about 60–90 minutes, depending on vehicle condition and required adjustments.
• Vehicles with worn suspension parts or aftermarket wheels may need additional inspection time; we communicate any extra work before proceeding.
• Factory-trained technicians use OEM equipment to ensure precise alignment the first time, saving you repeat visits and long‑term costs.
• If your car is under warranty, any covered repairs must be performed at a certified dealership to maintain protection and avoid out-of-pocket expenses later.
