All wheel Alignment ??? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Just curious---do any of you recommend getting a all wheel alignment as soon as you get new car? I've heard some people say they don't really come aligned from the factory and all the abuse they take on the hauler, unloading etc. affects it. Car only has 40 miles on it right now and feels fine but didn't want to not do it if needed...or waste money!

Thanks.

Absolutely.. At least have it checked. Mine alignment was off 2 weeks after I picked up my car. I have also aligned it since I replaced the Springs, Sways, Trailing Arms and Rear Toe Rods...

If the alignment is really off straight from the factory / dealer, I'd take it right back to the dealer and tell them you want it fixed under warranty. You didn't spend $35k to have a new car that needs an alignment.

Traditionally the alignment will be good enough not to create tire wear concerns. But not all alignments are equal. If you are an astute driver, changing the alignment to our Pedders Street performance levels makes a big difference in your handling. Just depends on your driving habits and abilities.

thanks
