Flat Spot On Tire Tread – Is There An Alignment Problem?

Flat Spot On Tire - Cottman Man - Cottman Transmission and Total Auto CAre

No; those flat spots on the tires usually indicate either something’s loose in the suspension or steering, or your car’s struts are worn and need replacement.

Tire Replacement Services

Your local Cottman center can check your car’s steering and suspension — including the struts or shocks — and let you know what you need to keep your car driving smooth and straight.

No matter what they find or what repairs they make, nothing will eliminate those flat spots. Generally speaking, once you have the car repaired, you’ll also need to replace the tires. But at least the new tires should wear evenly from then on!
