Just as important as getting your oil changed in extending the life of your vehicle is taking care of your tires. The roads are hot during the summer and with vacations and weekend activities, your car is likely driven much more than during other seasons. Due to the added wear and tear, a tire rotation, brake pad inspection or vehicle alignment could be needed sooner than expected. At our Monterey car dealership, our dedicated Cardinale Nissan service team can help make sure your tires are ready to tackle a summer adventure.

Why Is Tire Rotation Important?
By rotating each tire from one wheel to another, you can account for any extra wear and tear that a specific wheel experiences. For most cars, the outer edges of the front tires lean over more when turning and have more surface area exposed. Without a regular tire rotations, the increased strain will make it so that the front tires need replacing earlier than the back ones. Most tire stores offer discounts when you buy a full set of four, and ultimately rotating your tires will save you money and time.

Wheel Alignment
An improper wheel alignment occurs when the wheels become angled from their normal perpendicular position. The irregular movements caused by driving along bumps, holes or rough roads, the irregular movements can throw the tires out of alignment. Along with the added wear, your car can suffer from reduced handling and a lower gas mileage.
