• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

I am curious of there is a manufacturer recommended interval to perform an alignment, as well as a tire balance. If not, what interval do you recommend?
 
Is there a reason to do these unless you have issues?

Hoping to find an answer to that as well! Dealer asked me today when I was there for oil change, and I was caught off guard, declined the service.
 
Tire rotation definitely after a certain miles but the rest sounds like a money grab. Unless your car is shaking at speed or pulling to the side I wouldn't do it.

Service advisors tend to put the scary scenario ideas in clients' head. Some go do research and decide, others hand over the keys on the spot for such said service.

Thanks for the reply. That was my suspicion!
