Typically, a Toyota wheel alignment service takes about 90 to 120 minutes. This time estimate is the same, regardless of whether you drive a two- or four-wheel drive car around Lake Elsinore. Wheel alignment can take longer if there’s significant damage to the suspension system and its components. Those parts will need to be replaced.
