How often should I get an alignment on my 2017 Ford F-150?

Plan an alignment every 2–3 years or about 30,000 miles for a 2017 Ford F-150.

Utah’s freeze–thaw cycles, construction zones near I-15/I-80, and canyon drives can accelerate wear, so check sooner after a hard pothole hit or suspension work. This SuperCrew 4WD’s curb weight (4,729 lbs) and towing capacity (up to 10,700 lbs) add stress that makes correct camber, caster, and toe essential. If you notice uneven tire wear or pulling, book a check sooner. You can schedule service online.

  • Interval: 2–3 years/≈30,000 miles, sooner after impacts
  • After new tires, tie rods, ball joints, or struts
  • Book fast access off 500 West: schedule service
What are the signs my 2017 Ford F-150 needs an alignment?

Four classic signs are uneven tire wear, the truck pulling, an off‑center steering wheel, and vibration at speed.

With the F-150’s 10-speed transmission and 4WD, misalignment can show up as feathered edges on tires or a crooked wheel on straight roads like 500 West. After towing or hitting a rough patch near the Jordan River Parkway, recheck alignment to protect tread life. A quick inspection can confirm if angles are out or if a suspension issue is present. Use our schedule service tool anytime.

  • Uneven wear: inside/outside shoulders or feathering
  • Pulling left/right on flat freeway lanes
  • Steering wheel not centered when driving straight

How do I know if my 2017 Ford F-150 alignment problem needs more than just an alignment?

If tie rods, ball joints, bushings, or struts are worn, repairs are required before alignment will hold.

We start with a suspension and steering inspection to confirm your F-150 can maintain camber, caster, and toe under load. Play in components will cause the wheel to drift off spec, especially with the truck’s 420 lb‑ft of torque and towing duty. You’ll receive findings up front so you can decide on next steps. When you’re ready, schedule service online.

  • Check inner/outer tie rods and lower ball joints
  • Inspect control arm bushings and struts/shocks
  • Address wear first, then set alignment to spec
Is an alignment worth it for my 2017 Ford F-150 if it tracks straight?

Yes after impacts or suspension work; otherwise, plan for the 2–3 year/≈30,000‑mile cadence.

If your F-150 drives straight and tires wear evenly, you may not need an alignment at every rotation. However, Salt Lake City potholes, frost heaves, and off-ramp seams can nudge angles out over time. Post-repair alignments (tie rods, control arms, struts) protect new parts and tire warranties. If unsure, request a quick check and only proceed if readings are out.
