How long does it take to fix the alignment on my car?
I have to take my car in next week to get the alignment fixed. I’m pretty busy, so I won’t have much time to waste and need to plan my visit pretty precisely. How long does it usually take to fix the alignment on a car?

The age of your vehicle can also play a part in how long it’ll take them to fix your alignment, as there’s a higher chance for more issues to arise during the process—but all in all, it shouldn’t take more that one and a half hours at the absolute most.
