When Should Wheel Alignment Be Performed?

[Roberto]

New vehicles should undergo wheel alignment promptly after 3 months of driving and after any collision occurs, with tire rotation recommended every 10,000 kilometers. Wheel alignment is based on the four-wheel parameters of the vehicle, adjusted to ensure optimal driving performance and certain reliability. Below are relevant details: 1. The installation of a car's steering wheels, steering knuckles, and front axle maintains specific relative positions - this configuration is called steering wheel alignment, also known as front wheel alignment. 2. Front wheel alignment includes four components: caster angle, kingpin inclination angle, camber angle, and toe-in. Similarly, rear wheels also have specific installation positions relative to the rear axle, referred to as rear wheel alignment, comprising camber angle and individual rear wheel toe-in. Collectively, front wheel alignment and rear wheel alignment are termed four-wheel alignment.
