WHEEL ALIGNMENTS in
Manteca, CA

Car & Truck Alignments at Sunshine Auto Care Inc. in Manteca

A wheel alignment consists of adjusting the wheels of your vehicle so that all wheels are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the ground. Three basic angles contribute to proper wheel alignment: camber, caster, and toe. Camber is the measure of the degree of perpendicular offset from the road surface. Caster is the angle of your wheel’s pivot, which is attached to the suspension, and when this angle is out of alignment, straight-line tracking is affected. The toe refers to the angle of directional difference between the tire and the centerline of the vehicle. The front and rear wheels on your vehicle should always be perpendicular to the ground and parallel to the tire beside them. Routine wheel alignments have the potential to save you money in the long run while promoting optimal vehicle performance.

Benefits of a Wheel Alignment

A wheel alignment will keep your vehicle running safely and efficiently by promoting reduced tire wear, better gas mileage, and safer driving conditions. Wheels out of alignment will contribute to uneven tire wear. Uneven tread wear can be felt in a vehicle pulling to the right or left while in motion. Left untreated, wheel alignment issues have the potential to turn into steering and suspension issues, since driving with wheels out of alignment not only puts stress on your tires but also on suspension components. If your vehicle begins pulling to the right or left while driving, or if you feel a vibration in the steering wheel at higher speeds, contact us today for a wheel alignment service.

How do I know if I need and Alignment

Here are some of the symptoms:


  • Vehicle pulls to one side
  • Vibrating while driving
  • Uneven tire wear
  • Squealing tires


If you are experiencing any of the symptoms listed above and suspect that you are due for a wheel alignment, don’t hesitate to stop by One Stop Auto Care today. How often you will need a wheel alignment depends on your vehicle and your driving habits, but an inspection is typically recommended every 2 years or 20,000 miles. However, the wheels can actually be forced out of alignment due to causes such as hitting a pothole, a speedbump, a curb, or a minor car collision.

Chris
Professional Service and Courtesy. I’ve been using Phillips Auto Care for all my major repairs for over 30 years now. George always treated me with total professional service and courtesy. And it’s been followed up in the same way by Steve. I simply can’t express enough how great Phillips Auto Care is. They’re always great and fair to deal with. Especially when having to deal with the stress of having a broken vehicle and needing to get it fixed and back good as new as quickly as you can. They ALWAYS make it as painless as they can and with fair pricing, ALWAYS! They get it done right the first time, every time. I trust them completely to get me taken care of with no doubts or worries. Thanks again for all the years of fantastic service and best wishes for the continued success you very much deserve!

Thorough Analysis, Honesty, and Friendliness. Phillips Auto Care was very professional in their performance for my vehicle. Mitch rode with me as soon as I got there to hear the sound I wanted looked at. He heard it and described it to me. They gave me an estimate after they found the problem, and also took care of the regular maintenance I was there for. I asked about windshield wipers and the cost compared to buying them myself, and he was very honest about price comparisons. So I had them also replace my wipers. They also gave me a print out of things they found that would need to be taken care of with prices for each item. I was very pleased and comfortable with Phillips Auto Care service. I would recommend them to other people for their great work, thorough analysis, honesty, and their friendliness!

Informed, Friendly, and Caring. I was recommended to Phillips Car Care by a friend and I was so totally satisfied with them. I was treated so well by all. Mitch was great, always kept my husband and I informed on the process of the repair, friendly and caring. I really did not know such a great auto care garage existed in Manteca. Thank you so much for your professionalism and kindness, our car just found a new “doctor”!

30 Years of Trust. Finally got my truck to Phillip’s for an analysis (Engine check light was on.) It had been running (actually idling) rough for weeks. The guys figured it out quickly, made the repair, and returned the truck running smooth and with more spunk. Our family has taken our vehicles to Phillip’s Auto Care for over 30 years; first to George (the old man) and now to Steve and Mitch. I trust them with my vehicles!

Speedy Minivan Repairs. Having just moved my family from Nashville, TN, to Manteca, CA my family minivan wouldn’t start. Our roadside assistance agreed to tow my vehicle to a auto repair, from a list of four I chose Phillip’s. I called them to let them know my vehicle was on the way. Though being fully booked; I was told it would be checked out as soon as the could get to it. In the morning, I had a call my van was repaired and is ready to pick up. Glad to have made the choice of Phillips Auto Care.

Excellent Service Without Being Rushed. Phillips Auto Care has worked on my cars for years. From the simple oil change to replacing a engine, their service is excellent. They never make you fell rushed, take time to listen and keep you informed of the progress. Some people suggest they may be a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for. Always satisfied.

Catalytic Converter Repair. I had a very good experience and will definitely recommend you to friends and family. The catalytic converters on my truck was the problem just like your mechanic said. I would like to have some much needed maintenance performed on my truck and then possibly set up a regular service schedule. Thank you.
