4-Wheel Alignment Near Me in Sonoma County

Computerized Alignment Service – Fix Pulling & Uneven Tire Wear

Expert 4-Wheel Alignment Service

Is your vehicle pulling to one side? Are your tires wearing unevenly? You likely need 4-wheel alignment. At Rohnert Park Transmission & Auto Repair, we specialize in precision 4-wheel computerized alignment for all vehicle types—2WD, AWD, trucks, and luxury vehicles. Our ASE-certified technicians use state-of-the-art alignment equipment to restore your vehicle's handling and extend tire life.

4-wheel alignment adjusts all four wheels to manufacturer specifications, correcting toe, camber, and caster angles. Unlike 2-wheel (front-end) alignment, 4-wheel alignment addresses all suspension angles for optimal handling, safety, and tire wear. We serve all of Sonoma County with same-day service and transparent pricing.

From Healdsburg to Petaluma, Santa Rosa to Sebastopol—wherever you are in Sonoma County, we're your local 4-wheel alignment experts. No appointment necessary, and we often have same-day availability.

2-Wheel vs. 4-Wheel Alignment

2-Wheel (Front-End)

  • • Adjusts front wheels only
  • • Fixes basic pulling issues
  • • Limited correction
  • • Older alignment standard
  • • Lower cost

4-Wheel (Full)

  • • Adjusts all four wheels
  • • Corrects suspension geometry
  • • Precise handling correction
  • • Modern vehicle standard
  • • Better long-term results

Recommendation: We recommend 4-wheel alignment for most vehicles, especially AWD systems that require precise rear wheel angles.

Understanding Alignment Angles

Toe

The angle of wheels relative to vehicle centerline. Incorrect toe causes tire scrubbing and uneven wear.

Camber

Vertical wheel angle. Too much camber causes edge wear; too little causes center wear.

Caster

Steering pivot angle. Affects steering feel, stability, and centering after turns.

Signs You Need 4-Wheel Alignment

Vehicle pulls to one side while driving straight
Steering wheel is off-center when driving straight
Uneven tire wear (inner/outer edges worn faster)
Squealing or chirping sounds while turning
Steering feels loose or unresponsive
Recently hit a pothole, curb, or bump
Vehicle drifts or wanders on straight roads
Difficulty keeping vehicle centered on highway

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I get 4-wheel alignment?

Most manufacturers recommend alignment annually or every 10,000-15,000 miles. You should also get alignment after hitting potholes, curbs, or whenever you notice pulling or uneven wear.

Does my AWD vehicle need 4-wheel alignment?

Yes! AWD vehicles especially need 4-wheel alignment because all four wheels must be precisely aligned for the system to function correctly and transfer power evenly.

How much does 4-wheel alignment cost?

Cost varies based on vehicle type and suspension condition. Call (707) 584-7727 for a quote specific to your vehicle.

Will alignment fix my tire wear?

Alignment will prevent future uneven wear, but won't restore already-worn tires. If tires are beyond repair, we can recommend replacement options.

Do you align specialty or lowered vehicles?

Yes, we have experience aligning modified and lowered vehicles. Call us to discuss your specific setup and any special alignment angles needed.
