Benefits of Getting a Tire Rotation for Your Chrysler

The weight and pressures of a vehicle on its tires aren’t distributed in a perfectly even manner. As a result, car tires always begin to wear down unevenly, which can cause various problems unless the tires are rotated once or twice a year. Let’s look in detail at the many reasons to have regular tire rotation around at your local Chrysler dealership.

Greater Tire Longevity

Uneven tire wear can be significant. It’s possible for the front or back tires to wear down 50% faster than the others. This rapidly leads to one or two tires that are far more worn down and susceptible to damage. 

When one or two tires become too worn out to safely use, you usually need to replace all four. Regular rotation keeps your tires wearing down at a more even rate, thereby helping all four tires last in good shape for a lot longer. 

Considerable Savings on New Tires

If you can keep each new set of tires lasting a year or two longer with regular rotation, then you’ll save a good deal of money on the cost of new tires. This might well amount to thousands of dollars over the lifespan of your car. 

Reduced Maintenance Costs

When tires become uneven, they generate more vibrations, which puts greater stress on the suspension. The unevenness also makes the wheels unequal in size, which puts further strain on the suspension and any other connected car parts. 

In this way, uneven tires cause harm to connected components and lead to more frequent problems and repair jobs. Rotation helps protect not only your tires, but also your suspension, wheel axles, and your wallet. 

Increased Road Safety

When tires wear unevenly, one or two of the tires become weaker with thinner treads. This makes them more susceptible to damage, losing traction, and blowouts. 

While you’re on the road, all it takes is one tire to fail for an accident to ensue. By spreading wear and tear more evenly across all four tires, rotation reduces this risk and keeps you and your passengers safer.

Better Handling and Smoothness

Uneven tires generate more road noise and vibrations. Handling also steadily worsens as tires become unbalanced in size. So if you want to keep your car smoother, quieter, and easier to drive, make sure you don’t miss a scheduled rotation at your local dealership.

How Your Chrysler Dealer May Rotate Your Tires

There are a variety of rotation patterns for tires, depending largely on whether the vehicle has front-wheel, rear-wheel drive, or all-wheel drive. Your technician might swap your tires in a rearward cross, forward cross, or X-cross pattern. Or they may do a simple front-to-back swap.
