After another long Edmonton winter, fleets across Alberta are gearing up for the busy spring and summer seasons. But before the heavy hauling starts, it’s important to tackle the damage winter may have left behind, especially when it comes to your vehicles’ alignment.
Rough roads, potholes, frost heaves, and load shifts caused by road conditions during harsh winter weather can knock wheels and axles out of alignment. That’s why scheduling laser wheel alignment in Edmonton is one of the most effective maintenance steps commercial fleets can take right now to protect performance, reduce costs, and improve driver safety.
Why Spring is the Ideal Time for Alignment
Winter driving conditions create hidden wear and tear on suspension systems. Even if no obvious damage is visible, misalignment is a common problem after months of rough roads and icy surfaces.
Spring offers the perfect opportunity to correct any alignment issues before they turn into bigger, more expensive problems during peak operating season. Getting a laser wheel alignment in Edmonton now helps ensure tires wear evenly, fuel economy stays optimized, and steering remains responsive when it matters most.
Problems Caused by Poor Wheel Alignment
Misaligned wheels might not cause immediate breakdowns, but over time, they drain resources, increase maintenance costs, and put drivers at risk. Some of the most common problems include:
Uneven Tire Wear
Misalignment leads to premature and uneven tire wear, requiring early replacements that cut into profit margins.
Reduced Fuel Economy
Poor alignment creates extra rolling resistance, causing trucks to burn more fuel on every trip.
Strain on Suspension Components
Misaligned axles put stress on bushings, springs, and shock absorbers, accelerating component wear.
Poor Handling and Driver Fatigue
Trucks that drift, pull, or fight steering force drivers to over-correct, increasing fatigue and reducing overall safety.
Laser alignment provides the precision needed to address these issues before they escalate into costly repairs.
