Country roads and alignment
Wadsworth's two-lane roads have soft shoulders, crowned pavement and frost heaves. Those conditions knock alignments out and wear tire edges. If the car drifts toward the shoulder, have the alignment checked.
Trucks and SUVs
If you drive a pickup or an SUV, we service light trucks along with cars.
Deer and night driving
Wooded stretches near the Des Plaines River see deer crossings, especially at dawn and dusk in the fall. Headlight aim, brakes and tires all matter on those roads.
