Defining Volvo Tire Service

What is Volvo tire service? The answer varies because our Volvo Tire Service Center performs a variety of repairs related to tires. The most common type of Volvo tire service happens at routine maintenance when our technicians inspect the tire pressure and evaluate the tires for uneven wear and tread depth. If the tread wear is extensive, our team will suggest a tire replacement in Clearwater, FL, and consult with you regarding the available tire options we have in stock.

A tire rotation is another Volvo tire service that our technicians perform during routine maintenance. Tire rotations are beneficial to ensure your tire wear is evenly spread across all front and rear tires. Over time, as you drive, the position of each tire puts different amounts of pressure on the tires. For instance, front-wheel drive vehicles absorb more torque and friction for accelerating, braking, and turning when compared to rear-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive models.

The type of tire rotation also depends upon the tire rotation patterns and the powertrain of your vehicle. Our certified technicians will reposition from side to side or front to back based on manufacturer recommendations. Tire rotations are important, too, because when the tread wear and tread depth is uniform, this helps provide more consistency when it comes to cornering, braking performance, traction, and handling.

Maintaining Volvo Tires

Although the service team at Crown Volvo Cars performs thorough inspections of your wheel alignment, front tires, rear tires, front axle, and rear axle, during routine maintenance, there are actions you can take, as a car owner, to ward off tire repairs and tire replacements sooner vs. later.

Our team recommends that you maintain your tires by checking the tire pressure each month. It’s common for tires to lose about a pound per square inch (PSI) of pressure each month. It’s also common to lose more pressure when the temperatures are below 32-degrees F. Ensure that the tire pressure is at recommended levels to avoid low-pressure increasing wear and tear and affecting your vehicle’s handling. Incorrect air pressure can also decrease your fuel efficiency.

Our Volvo Tire Service Center also recommends having your tires balanced. All tires and wheels feature a heavy spot and although small, this heavy spot can cause uneven tire wear and vibrations on the steering wheel when the balance is off. Schedule Volvo tire service if you notice these symptoms and our team will get your vehicle balanced.

If you notice that your vehicle is pulling to the left or right or vibrations within the steering wheel, this could be because your vehicle needs a wheel alignment. As part of our Volvo tire service, wheel alignments help to repair damage from hitting potholes or curbs. When wheels are misaligned, it’s common to notice a decrease in fuel economy and an increase in tread wear that could lead to a tire replacement in Clearwater, FL.
