When properly aligned, all of your wheels are pointed in the same direction. Your vehicle will track true and handle the way it is designed. Batavia drivers often associate our wheels being “knocked” out of alignment with an event like a major crash, hitting a pothole, curb or some other object. While these can certainly take your wheels out of alignment, the bumps and bounces of everyday Batavia driving take their toll on wheel alignment as well.
