Chevrolet Alignment service at Larry H. Miller Chevrolet Murray in Murray, UT Frequently Asked QuestionsFrequently Asked Questions
9 common questions answered
How often should I get an alignment on my 2018 Chevrolet Spark in Murray?
Every 2–3 years or about 30,000 miles is a good baseline, and sooner after suspension work or a major pothole hit.
Utah’s freeze–thaw cycles and construction zones can nudge alignment out of spec on a compact hatchback like the Spark. If you frequently drive mountain passes or rough city streets around Salt Lake City, inspect sooner. Our team at Larry H. Miller Chevrolet Murray can confirm alignment with OEM equipment and provide a printout.

If tie rods, ball joints, or struts are worn, an alignment alone wont hold true.

- Uneven tire wear returning quickly after past alignments

Is an alignment worth it for my 2018 Chevrolet Spark if it tracks straight?
Not alwaysif it tracks straight and tires wear evenly, you can wait until symptoms appear or after related repairs.
Routine checks help, but you dont need to align at every tire rotation if your Sparks wear is even and steering is centered. After hitting a pothole, replacing struts, or noticing drift, book an inspection. Well measure and only recommend alignment if readings are out of Chevrolet spec.
