ALIGNMENT SERVICES
Correctly aligned tires will reduce tire wear, and ensure that your vehicle travels straight and true (without "pulling" to one side). Your tires should be checked during routine maintenance, but if you notice uneven tire wear or your car is pulling to one side, you should have a qualified automotive technician examine your car. You can trust the technicians at Dennis Hall's Auto Service to thoroughly examine your vehicle's tires and correct the alignment if necessary. Call us at 865-690-1151 if you have any questions or want to schedule an appointment.

Alignment FAQs
How long does a full alignment take?
A wheel alignment usually takes about an hour for both two-wheel and four-wheel drive vehicles. However, if there is significant wear and tear on suspension components like bushings, track rods, or the alignment system itself, replacement parts may be needed, which could extend the service time.
What happens if you wait too long for an alignment?
Delaying a wheel alignment can negatively affect your tire performance and lifespan. Even slight misalignments, which are imperceptible to the eye but measurable in small degrees or fractions of an inch, can cause uneven and premature tire wear. Over time, this wear becomes more noticeable, impacting safety and fuel efficiency. To prevent these issues, it's recommended to have your alignment checked every 6,000 miles.
What is checked during an alignment?
During a tire alignment, three key angles are examined: camber, toe, and caster. Camber refers to the angle between the vertical axis of the tire and a line perpendicular to the road surface when viewed from the front. If the top of the tire tilts inward, creating an "X" shape between the wheels, it's known as negative camber, which can cause excessive wear on the inner edge of the tire due to increased friction.
Do I need an alignment after replacing tires?
Yes, you do! Proper wheel alignment ensures that the angles between your tires and the road surface are accurate, which helps to maximize tire life, improve handling, and ensure even tread wear. This not only boosts fuel efficiency and driving safety but also enhances your overall driving experience.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Hands down the nicest people ever.They replace my headlight for free today.For my birthday what a blessing I will use them for everything I need in the future they didn't have to be so kind. Such an amazing place I recommend them to everyone having car trouble go see these guys
I took my 93 Nissan to Dennis Hall back in March because it was idling rough and had them go ahead and do a rear end service on it as well. They did great work and at an adorable price. It is now August and I noticed it looked like my rear end had leaked a little bit and called them to see if I need to schedule an appointment to get it looked at again. They told me to just stop by and they would check it out free of charge to make sure everything still seemed correct. They got me in and out quickly and very pleased they took the time to make sure their work was correct and didn't make me have to pay for another service. I will be going back for all my vehicle needs 10/10 auto shop!
Had an issue pop up when we were traveling on the interstate. We stopped here and they helped us out super quick and were very nice. If I lived in town this would be my mechanic.
