The 1985 GMC Suburban: Wheel alignment
For a wheel alignment on the 1985 GMC Suburban, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and rents you a car while yours is in. Hitting a pothole hard can knock the wheels out of line.
Your Suburban and the shop
A photo of the dashboard warning light helps the shop prepare. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 6.2L 8-cylinder. Power comes from the 6.2L 8-cylinder, driving through a 4-speed automatic.
Our part and the shop's part
We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. The shop sets the price and the time after seeing the car. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name.
A car while yours is in the shop
If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. Rent by the day while the shop has your car. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Between shop visits
Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt.
Talking to the shop
Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour. If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon.
Over to you
Start with the car, the job and your location.
