Maintaining Your Cadillac's Tires
Wheel Alignment & Balance
Proper wheel alignment is key to prolonging the life of your tires. If your vehicle is misaligned, it can cause your tires to wear unevenly, and you may experience a change in how your vehicle handles.
Your tires and wheels are aligned and balanced at the factory to provide the longest life and best overall performance. Adjustments to wheel alignment and tire balancing are not necessary on a regular basis. Consider a wheel alignment check if there is unusual tire wear or the vehicle is significantly pulling to one side or the other.
If one of your tires is out of balance it can affect your ride quality and can shorten the life of tires and other suspension components. If you notice a vibration when driving on a smooth road, the tires and wheels may need to be rebalanced. Let our Certified Service experts here at Classic Cadillac of Atlanta ensure you have a smooth ride.
Tire Pressure
Your Cadillac’s Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) is designed to warn the driver when low-tire-pressure conditions exist. A sensor measures tire pressure and temperature, then transmits data to your tire pressure monitor. If the pressure in one or more of your tires is 25 percent or more below the vehicle manufacturer's recommended cold inflation pressure for tires, a warning indication will alert the driver.
Your Original Equipment TPMS sensor battery can last up to 10 years with normal use. When the TPMS battery fails, the sensor will need to be replaced.
How do you know that air pressure is low or whether the TPMS has malfunctioned?
If your Tire Pressure Monitor light comes on and stays solid with a check tire pressure, low tire pressure, or add air to tire message, then check and adjust all tire air pressures to the recommended levels. Next, drive your vehicle to turn the light off.
If your Tire Pressure Monitor light appears as a blinking yellow lamp for more than one minute and stays solid, then diagnostic service is needed. If your TPMS is not functioning properly, it cannot detect or signal a low-tire condition. Simply schedule an appointment with one of our Certified Service Technicians and they can ensure your TPMS is operating properly so you can go with confidence.
Tire Rotation
It's a known fact that regular tire rotation extends the life of your tires and improves performance. Tires are rotated to achieve a uniform wear for all tires. Each tire performs different tasks (such as steering in front- versus rear-wheel drive), therefore tires wear at different rates. 4Your tires should be rotated every 7,500 miles to prevent irregular tire wear.
It's important to rotate your tires according to the correct tire-rotation pattern. Doing so will prolong the life of your tires and will reduce the risk of sudden tire failure. Your front tires encounter different tasks than the rear tires. A front-wheel-drive vehicle’s tires perform different tasks than those on a rear-wheel-drive vehicle.
If your vehicle has a Tire Pressure Monitoring System, it will need to be reset after each tire rotation. You can count on your Certified Service experts in our service department on Roswell Road to perform this simple procedure with every tire rotation they perform. For more information, see your Owner’s Manual for details.
Tire Wear
What Causes Tire Wear
There are many factors that can cause tire wear, such as your driving style and tire maintenance habits. Tire replacement is absolutely needed when the tread wear indicators appear. Your tire's built-in tread wear indicators look like narrow strips of smooth rubber across the tread and become visible as the tire surface wears. Ask your Classic Cadillac service advisor about your tires tread and wear to learn more.
When To Replace Tires
Tread wear indicators appear when your tires only have 2/32 inch or less of tread remaining. Also, the rubber in your tires ages over time. This applies to your spare tire as well (if available), even if it is never used. Multiple factors including temperatures, loading conditions, and inflation pressure maintenance affect how fast tires age.
Other warning signs that your vehicle will need tire replacement:
• You can see three or more tread wear indicators around the tire
• The tire cord or fabric is showing through the rubber
• The tire tread or sidewall is cracked, cut, or snagged deep enough to show cord or fabric
• The tire has a bulge or split
• The tire has a puncture, cut, or other damage that can't be repaired correctly
If you are in need of tires, come to Classic Cadillac. Our Certified Service experts will help you find the right tires for your Cadillac vehicle.

Cadillac Brake Service Near Atlanta and Roswell
Cadillac utilizes advanced technology to provide exceptional performance and safety. Our Certified Service experts at Classic Cadillac understand this technology, inside and out. Why trust anyone else to care for your Cadillac?
This is especially true when it comes to your vehicle’s braking system. Regular brake inspections can help prevent unnecessary damage to the rotors, calipers, and other related systems that help your Cadillac perform as it was carefully designed to.
It is recommended that a trained professional inspect, and if necessary, service your vehicle’s braking system to help ensure all components are working properly. If brake service or replacement is required, your Certified Service technician can help you get safely — and confidently — back on the road with ACDelco quality brake components that are designed, tested, and backed by those who built your Cadillac. After all, no one knows your vehicle and its components better than your Certified Service experts.
Determining the Time for Brake Repair or Replacement
In certain instances, your vehicle’s brakes will alert you to potential issues. Squealing noises, chirping sounds, and grinding are indications that brake repair is required. Also, because brake components wear out at different intervals under different driving conditions, you should ask your Certified Service technician to inspect your brakes at least every 7,500 miles. Classic Cadillac’s skilled technicians are experts when it comes to examining the wear and quality of your Cadillac brakes.
BRAKE TROUBLE QUESTIONS TO CONSIDER:
1. Are your brakes making squealing, chirping, or grinding noises?
2. Does your brake pedal pulsate or feel soft?
3. Does it take longer distances to come to a complete stop?
4. Does your vehicle pull to one side when stopping?
5. Does your steering wheel shake when applying the brakes?
6. Do you see excessive brake dust on the wheels?
If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, have your Certified Service technician inspect your brakes soon.
Brake Pad Warning Indicator and Signs of Brake Rotor Wear
The brake pads on your Cadillac may be equipped with a small, thin piece of metal to act as a warning indicator when the pad material is getting low and the brake pads should be replaced. This device makes a high-pitched sound on brake application, letting you know it’s time for brake service and to set up an appointment with your Classic Cadillac advisor.
Rotors – rotating discs that help slow or stop the vehicle when brake pads make contact – should also be regularly inspected. Some signs of wear may include:
• Brake-pedal pulsation
• Squealing or grinding noise
• Low brake-pedal height
• Vehicle pulls to the left or right when brakes are applied
Stopping power is crucial to getting the most out of your Cadillac. When you think it may be time for brake service, ask your Certified Service experts at Classic Cadillac to recommend quality ACDelco Professional or GM Original Equipment replacement brakes and equipment in Atlanta, GA.
