I recently purchased this vehicle and need to know if by getting the alignment, the "vibration" that I get when I drive it with, would go away.

Hi Designing5,

Vibrations are not directly affected by the alignment but wheel balancing would. It depends on what type of vibrations you are getting.

If vibrations occurs when a certain speed is attained, it could be caused by tires out of balance. If vibrations occurs only with slight acceleration and goes away or lessens when the accelerator is released, the CV shafts inner joints need to be checked.
