The 1981 Mercury Capri: Wheel alignment
Need a wheel alignment for your 1981 Mercury Capri? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. An alignment keeps the car driving straight and the tires wearing evenly.
Your Capri and the shop
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts.
Who does what
You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. You approve the shop's quote before any work. The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
Add a rental to the same request as the repair. We collect the rental when your car is back. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Questions to ask the shop
If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask when the car will be ready and how the shop will tell you.
Car care, briefly
If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Look at the tire tread before long trips. Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring.
Talk to a person
Start with the car, the job and your location.
Request wheel alignment
Tell us when suits you. A person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one; the shop sets its own price and time.
