How often should I get an alignment on a 2016 BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe?

Every 2–3 years or about every 30,000 miles is a practical alignment interval for a 2016 BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe.

In Greater Boston’s mix of city streets, construction zones, and winter-worn pavement, alignment angles can drift sooner—especially after pothole strikes or suspension work. Herb Chambers BMW Certified Pre-Owned Medford serves Medford and nearby communities with factory-spec checks to catch issues before tires cup or feather.

  • Recheck after major pothole impacts or curb hits
  • Align after replacing tie rods, control arms, or struts
  • Combine with new tires to maximize tread life
