How often should I get an alignment on a 2023 Ford Transit-Connect-Cargo-Van?
Every 2–3 years or around 30,000 miles is a good rule of thumb, and sooner after suspension work or a major pothole hit.
This interval keeps your 2023 Ford Transit-Connect-Cargo-Van tracking straight and helps your commercial tires wear evenly. If you frequently drive urban routes around Braintree or carry varying cargo loads, check alignment more often. After any steering or suspension repair, verify alignment to protect new components.
