Pulling to One Side?
Alignment or Suspension — We’ll Tell You Which.
Front-end alignment, shocks, struts, control arms, ball joints, tie rods and bushings, on any make. Michigan potholes are hard on both systems, and they’re easy to tell apart once we look.

No purchase necessary. We’ll tell you plainly which system is the actual problem.
Do You Need This?
Alignment, Suspension, or Both?
These two systems get blamed on each other constantly. Here’s what tends to point to which one.
The car pulls to one side on a flat road
The steering wheel is off-center when driving straight
Uneven tire wear on one edge of the tread
Clunking or knocking over bumps
A bouncy or floaty ride
The nose dives hard when you brake

What to Expect
What Happens When You Bring It In
You describe the pull, the bounce or the noise
When it happens, at what speed, over what kind of bump. You don’t need the part name.
We inspect it and show you
Alignment numbers, worn components, tire wear patterns — you see the actual measurements, free.
You get a written estimate
Parts, labor, shop supplies and disposal fees, itemized, before anything is touched.
We call before we exceed it
If more turns up once the wheel is off, work stops and we call. You decide.
Why Here
Factory Training Isn’t a Fence.
It’s Where We Start.
Alignment and suspension get blamed on each other more than almost any other pair of systems in the shop. Here’s how we make sure you’re not paying to fix the wrong one.
A written estimate before we touch anything
Michigan law requires it above $50. We’d do it anyway. If a repair is going to run past the estimate, we call you first — every time.
Your warranty stays intact
Federal law protects your right to service your vehicle wherever you want. We’re not going to tell you otherwise. We’d just rather earn it.
Dealers usually cost less, not more
Cox Automotive’s 2025 study put the average dealership repair at $261 against $275 at general repair shops. Kelley Blue Book calls the opposite belief perception bias rather than reality.

Questions
Straight Answers
How often should I get an alignment?
After hitting a significant pothole or curb, after new tires or suspension work, or if you notice a pull or uneven wear — otherwise, on the interval your manufacturer specifies. If you’re not sure it’s due, the inspection to check is free.
Will an alignment fix my uneven tire wear?
It stops the wear from continuing, but it won’t undo wear that’s already happened. If the tire is significantly worn on one edge already, we’ll tell you honestly whether it needs replacing too.
What’s the difference between an alignment and a tire rotation?
A rotation moves the tires to even out wear; an alignment adjusts the angles of the wheels themselves. They solve different problems, and a car can need either one, both, or neither — that’s exactly what the free inspection is for.
Will this affect my factory warranty?
No. Federal law protects your right to have your vehicle serviced wherever you choose without losing your factory warranty.
