Company History
Established in 1978, East County Alignment has grown to be
one of the largest premier suspension specialty shops in Southern
California. We have become a leader in the field due to the highest of
customer satisfaction and our commitment to excellence in service. We
receive numerous referrals from other automotive and suspension
facilities, which do not have the equipment and/or expertise to repair
chronic problem vehicles. This along with customer referrals help
generate a great amount of our business. We are constantly
striving to stay ahead of new vehicle technology and repair procedures.
Our technicians stay in the forefront of
technology.
A wheel alignment can
prevent unnecessary tire wear and save you money. Have you noticed any
unusual bald spots on your tires? Does your car seem to drift to the
right or left when you take your hands off the steering wheel? Is the
steering wheel not centered when your car is moving
straight?
If you answered "yes"
to any of these questions, chances are that your wheels are out of alignment. A
misalignment affects your steering and, eventually, if not repaired, can
cause premature tire wear. In addition, a wheel misalignment can
decrease your gas mileage, because crooked wheels increase the friction
as your tires roll across the pavement. A misalignment can be caused by
a number of factors, including normal wear and stress. Hitting a pothole
can also throw your car's delicate alignment out
of whack.
