Default got the car back from the dealer for the alignment.

Camber and caster were with in spec on all four wheels and the toe was off on the front tires quite a bit. Rear wheels were fine. Total cost $42.36 including tax. Yes, they gave me the print outs.

Default Doc- if the toe was out on the fronts that much, did they verify the tie rod ends are good?

I wonder how tos could go out that far all of a sudden without some signifiact wear or damage to the tie rods.

Default They checked everything and said it was OK. Only thing I can think of was that I hit a BIG pothole

and knocked it out of alignement.
