Making sure your wheels are correctly aligned improves the performance and longevity of your tires. Unfortunately, wheels are frequently misaligned due to hitting potholes, bumps, curbs, driving on uneven surfaces, and general wear and tear. Therefore, keeping your wheels accurately aligned is critical to maintaining their quality and performance.
The angle of your wheels in relation to the body of your vehicle is referred to as wheel alignment. True Auto Care in Fergus, ON technicians can pinpoint how much adjustment is required and apply it using cutting-edge technology.
We recommend that you get your wheel alignment checked at least every 10,000 kms and any time you experience a change in the driving or handling of your vehicle.
Wheel alignments ensure that your vehicle’s tires move, rotate, or point straight ahead. Having your tires appropriately aligned will increase tire life and make driving easier. However, large potholes or other objects, such as curbs, can cause tires to become out of alignment. When your tire is out of alignment, it can cause complex handling and excessive tire wear.
Camber, caster, and toe are three factors that influence your vehicle’s wheel alignment. Camber refers to the wheel’s angle seen from the front of the vehicle. The camber measurement on your tire should be 0°.
Ensuring appropriate wheel alignment is critical to avoiding potential wear on your tires, steering, suspension, and brakes. Accurate wheel alignment helps improve driving stability, tire life, and overall handling efficiency. For a hassle-free riding experience, proper wheel alignment is essential.
When there is any problem with your vehicle, it notifies you by way of signs or symptoms. For example, improper wheel balancing or alignment might create several consequences. Some are related to tire wear and tear, while others are associated with drifting and pulling.
The angle of your wheels can become skewed over time, causing various changes to your driving experience. Here are some of the warning signs that your vehicle needs wheel alignment:
Here are some dangers if you don’t fix the wheel alignment issue-
Once you get a wheel alignment done, you will notice some of the advantages, a few of them are:
When your car’s wheels aren’t correctly aligned, they don’t work together as they should. As a result, your vehicle’s engine has to work much harder to propel you forward, reducing fuel economy.
When you drive with a poor alignment, the parts in your car wear unevenly and prematurely. When you hit a pothole or a bump in the road, your steering and suspension systems suffer. When your tires aren’t evenly distributing the impact, certain areas of these systems take the brunt of the damage, causing them to fail sooner than they should.
When your car’s wheel alignment is off, you will notice that it drifts slightly to the right or left, even when your steering wheel is aimed straight ahead. Constantly adjusting your steering to compensate for poor alignment is exhausting, inefficient, distracting, and potentially dangerous!
Last but not least, your tires. Your tires are an expensive and vital auto part that wears out much more quickly when you don’t get regular wheel alignments. When you align your tires and they work together in harmony, they will take you much further, and you won’t have to buy new tires sooner than you need to.

I needed new tires, Emily was very helpful in the process and gave me several options with great prices. Had a few other services performed while they had my car. Everything was done as promised and my car was finished on time.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently brought my vehicle to True Auto Care Fergus for a safety inspection and some service, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. The team did a very thorough job and gave me a full, detailed report with pictures of everything they found. That level of transparency really builds TRUST, and it made me feel confident in the work being done. The service was professional and done right, and I especially want to thank Emily at the front desk. She was welcoming, friendly, and explained everything clearly, which made the whole process stress-free. I'm(KK) very satisfied with the work. Special shout-out to Mr. Skyler, the tech who worked on my car — he did a fantastic job, and now my auto is fully safe to drive and meets the new MTO digital safety standards. It’s not every day you walk out of an auto shop actually feeling good about the experience — but that’s exactly what happened here. True Auto Care definitely earned my respect and my recommendation. If you’re in Fergus Ontario or the area and want a shop you can rely on, this is the place to go. – Chevy TrucKK (KK) Lover 💪

Such a great garage to deal with. My car broke down away from home and you guys did a great job getting me back up and going. I can’t say enough about how great my experience was. I even told you that when I was leaving. If you were closer to me I would 100% make you my go to garage. Communication about what was wrong and the repair was outstanding!!

Kerrigan Nealson Aug 8, 2025
Friendly, responsive and timely. My only critique is that I think they could have cleaned the windshield as part of the service and to show off their great work. Otherwise, well done.
Anita Zeitler Aug 8, 2025
Fantastic team! It's unheard of to get a BMW service bill under 3 digits. The team assessed my problem and came back with two options (one being take it to BMW for authentic parts). I chose their simple solution. Appreciated the option offering. Great solution and FANTASTIC cost. They've earned a new repeat customer!

The key to my exceptional service was my direct contact with the "front line staff". I was met with a smile, respect, understanding and gratitude. The work on car has made a noticeable difference in how the care handles on the highway. I also have maintenance suggestions for the future. Very professional ... I will definitely go back in the future!

Kenneth Lindsay Mar 3, 2023
Called to book my vehicle in for a quote because my exhaust broke right behind one of the flex pipes. They were able to give me a quote super quick and had both flex pipes replaced in an hour. I had it quoted at a different place right before this and the other place quoted it over 4 X more expensive AND they couldn't do it until the next day. If the first quote seems too expensive, always get a second quote. Highly recommend True Auto Care and I'll definitely be back! Thanks!

I was able to get in right away and they provided a very thoroughly inspection of my vehicle. They also provided me with options of what needs to be completed and what was not necessary. Overall excellent experience and I will continue to use True Auto Care for all my maintenance needs going forward!
Amanda Getchell Mar 3, 2025
A very friendly and welcoming place. Got me booked in and service completed quickly, but didn’t skip over the little details that show care and attention to detail, in the name of speed. They even took the time to put my spare tire and all the tools I used to change my tire back together properly and away the way it was supposed to be in my jeep (I had just thrown them in the trunk). They left my car clean, were respectful of my time and even a little bag of cookies with a thank you note. Top notch from start to finish. Will definitely be returning to them for future service needs.
