What you need to know about safety system alignment service

Vehicle Safety Systems are features that assist a driver during operation of a vehicle. Many modern vehicles are equipped with Safety Systems such as Steering Angle Sensor (SAS) and/or Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). Sensors, cameras, lasers and radars that help your vehicle detect other vehicles, pedestrians and markings on the road all rely on proper alignment to function accurately.

Common Features Associated With Safety Systems

HOW IS YOUR CAR HELPING YOU DRIVE SAFER TODAY?

  • Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
    Helps drivers maintain control of their vehicle during extreme steering maneuvers.
  • Electric Power Steering (EPS)
    Assisting the driver to turn the steering wheel.
  • Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB)
    Detect an impending forward crash with another vehicle in time to avoid or mitigate the crash.
  • Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
    Warns the driver when the vehicle begins to move out of its lane.
  • Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
    Automatically adjusts the speed to maintain a safe distance from vehicles ahead.
  • Active Front Steering (AFS)
    Makes the front wheels turn a certain number of degrees in accordance with the speed of the vehicle.
  • Night Vision System (NVS)
    Extends the perception beyond the limited reach of headlights through the use of various technologies.
  • Rear Camera System (RCS)
    A special type of video camera that is attached to the rear to aid in backing up.
  • Four Wheel Steering (4WS)
    All four wheels turn at the same time. The rear wheels are controlled by a computer and actuators.

WHAT IS INVOLVED IN A WHEEL ALIGNMENT SERVICE?

A wheel alignment will include inflating your tires to the correct air pressure, inspecting the steering and suspension system, aligning the vehicle to manufacturer's specifications and a test drive to ensure all systems are aligned to the straight-ahead position and working properly.

If your car manufacturer requires the recalibrations of features associated with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems as part of the alignment service, a Safety Systems Alignment will be required to recalibrate cameras, sensors and radars along with a test drive to ensure these systems are working properly.

Failure to perform OEM required recalibrations may cause a vehicle to operate erratically, which may contribute to collisions or other safety issues.
