Frequently Asked Questions

9 common questions answered

How often should I get an alignment on my 2025 Ram 1500?

Get a four-wheel alignment every 2–3 years or about every 30,000 miles, and anytime after suspension work or a major pothole impact.

That guidance helps preserve even tire wear and factory steering geometry for the 2025 Ram 1500 in Albuquerque, where road construction and seasonal freeze-thaw can accelerate misalignment. If you replace tires, install a lift or leveling kit, or have a steering component replaced, schedule an alignment immediately.

  • Typical interval: every 2–3 years or ~30,000 miles
  • Immediately after suspension or steering repairs
  • After hitting a large pothole or curb
What are the signs my 2025 Ram 1500 needs an alignment?

Four common signs are uneven tire wear, the vehicle pulling to one side, an off-center steering wheel, or vibration at speed.

On a 2025 Ram 1500, these symptoms usually point to toe or camber deviation that should be measured with OEM alignment gear. In Albuquerque, check sooner if you frequently drive on construction-affected roads or hit potholes.

  • Uneven wear across the tire tread
  • Truck pulls left or right while driving straight
  • Steering wheel not centered when driving straight
What's included in a 2025 Ram 1500 four-wheel alignment?

A four-wheel alignment includes caster, camber and toe adjustments to factory specifications with before-and-after printouts, plus a suspension inspection and road test.

For the 2025 Ram 1500 our technicians verify tire pressures, inspect tie rods, ball joints, and bushings, measure front and rear geometry with OEM-calibrated equipment, and perform a road test to confirm handling. You receive documented readings showing the correction made.

  • Suspension and tie-rod inspection before adjustments
  • Caster, camber, and toe set to factory specs
  • Before/after alignment printout and final road test
How do I know if my 2025 Ram 1500 alignment problem needs more than just an alignment?

If worn components like tie rods, ball joints, control-arm bushings, or bent parts are present, alignment alone will not hold and parts replacement is required.

Technicians inspecting your 2025 Ram 1500 will look for play, torn boots, and visible damage before attempting adjustments. In Albuquerque, road hazards can accelerate wear; we report any parts that need replacement so the alignment will stay within spec.

  • Shop inspects tie rods, ball joints, and bushings first
  • Replacement parts are required if there is excessive play or damage
  • Alignment is completed after suspension issues are resolved
Is an alignment worth it for my 2025 Ram 1500 if it tracks straight?

Not always — if the 2025 Ram 1500 tracks straight and shows no uneven wear, an alignment can usually wait until symptoms or component work appear.

However, an alignment is recommended after new tire installation, suspension repairs, or after hitting a significant pothole in Albuquerque. A baseline alignment and printout give you documentation that geometry met factory specs at the time of service.

  • Consider alignment after tire replacement
  • Do it after suspension or steering repairs
  • Use a baseline alignment to document factory-spec geometry
How long does a four-wheel alignment take on a 2025 Ram 1500?

Most four-wheel alignments are completed in about 60 minutes from inspection to road test.

For a 2025 Ram 1500 the total time depends on whether suspension repairs are needed; if we find worn components we will contact you with an estimate and timeline. Plan for additional time if parts replacement or ordering is required.

  • Typical service bay time: ~60 minutes
  • Longer if parts or repairs are required after inspection
  • Call ahead or schedule service to reserve a slot
What's Included in a 2025 Ram 1500 Four-Wheel Alignment

Our four-wheel alignment for the 2025 Ram 1500 follows a step-by-step process that begins with a full suspension inspection. Technicians check tie rods, ball joints, control-arm bushings, steering linkages, and tire condition. We confirm and set recommended tire pressures, then mount OEM-calibrated alignment heads to measure caster, camber, and toe for front and rear axles.

Adjustments are made to bring each axis to factory specifications, and we print before-and-after alignment readings for your records. A road test verifies steering return and handling. If worn or damaged components are found, we recommend repairs before final alignment so the settings will hold. For available service discounts see service specials.
