A typical four-wheel alignment for a 2012 Jeep Compass takes about 60 minutes at our service center.

• Suspension and tie-rod inspection performed first
• Road test to verify alignment under load

Get an alignment every 2–3 years or about every 30,000 miles, or sooner after suspension work or a major pothole impact.

• Inspect alignment after any suspension repair
• Check alignment if you feel the vehicle pulling or see uneven tire wear
• Schedule a check following a hard impact or curb contact

A four-wheel alignment includes a suspension and tie-rod inspection, computerized measurement of caster, camber, and toe, adjustment to factory specifications, and a printed before-and-after report.

Technicians set caster, camber and toe to the manufacturer's targets, verify tire pressure and condition, and road-test the 2012 Jeep Compass to confirm corrected handling. The service is documented with alignment printouts you can keep for your records.

• Full steering and suspension inspection prior to adjustment
