Ram Alignment service at Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Sandy in Sandy, UT Frequently Asked QuestionsFrequently Asked Questions
9 common questions answered
How often should I get an alignment on my 2014 Ram 1500?
Get an alignment every 2–3 years or about every 30,000 miles, and after any suspension work or major pothole impact.
Routine driving around Sandy and the Wasatch Front — especially during freeze/thaw cycles or after winter road repairs — increases the chance of misalignment. If you tow regularly with your 2014 Ram 1500 or hit canyon roads, check alignment more frequently. We inspect steering and suspension components before adjusting to factory specs and recommend a printout for your records.
- Typical interval: 2–3 years or ~30,000 miles
- Always after suspension repair or new tires
- Check sooner if you hit a large pothole or curb
What are the signs my 2014 Ram 1500 needs an alignment?
Uneven tire wear, the truck pulling to one side, and an off-center steering wheel are common, clear signs your 2014 Ram 1500 needs an alignment.
On local roads around Sandy, symptoms can appear after hitting potholes or from gradual wear. You may also feel vibration at speed or notice decreased fuel economy. Our technicians examine tire tread patterns and steering angles to confirm whether an alignment alone will correct the condition.
- Uneven or cupped tire wear
- Vehicle pulling or drifting while driving straight
- Steering wheel sits off-center when driving straight
What's included in a 2014 Ram 1500 four-wheel alignment?
A four-wheel alignment includes inspection and adjustment of caster, camber, and toe to factory specifications with before-and-after printouts.
The service covers a visual suspension and tie‑rod inspection, tire inflation check, computerized measurement and adjustment of front and rear toe, camber and caster where adjustable, and a road test to verify handling. We use OEM-aligned procedures and document readings so you have a clear record for future service.
- Suspension and tie-rod inspection
- Computerized caster/camber/toe adjustment to factory spec
- Printed before-and-after alignment readings and road test
How do I know if my 2014 Ram 1500 alignment problem needs more than just an alignment?
Worn tie rods, ball joints, or struts often mean alignment alone won't hold and those components must be repaired first.
When driving locally around Sandy or after canyon trips, a misalignment that returns quickly is a sign of worn suspension parts. Our technicians perform a suspension inspection before adjustments and will report any components that need replacement so the alignment remains within factory limits.
- Front-end component wear can prevent a stable alignment
- We inspect tie rods, ball joints, control arms, and mounts
- Repairs are documented before final alignment adjustments
Is an alignment worth it for my 2014 Ram 1500 if it tracks straight?
If your 2014 Ram 1500 tracks straight and shows no symptoms, an alignment isn't always necessary on every visit, but it is recommended after tire changes, suspension work, or noticeable wear.
Routine inspections in Sandy's mixed road conditions can catch early wear that doesn't yet show as pulling. If you plan to tow, replace tires, or drive on recently repaired roads, a verified factory-spec alignment protects tire life and handling. You can schedule service when you're ready.
- Not required each oil change if no symptoms
- Recommended after new tires, towing, or suspension repairs
- Good preventative measure in pothole-prone seasons

The service sequence begins with a visual inspection of tires, wheel condition, and steering/suspension components — tie rods, ball joints, control arms and mounts. Next, we check tire pressures and load, mount precision sensors, and run a computerized measurement of caster, camber and toe on front and rear axles. Adjustments are made to factory specifications, followed by a documented before-and-after printout and a road test to confirm corrected handling.
