I would like to know if this is a adjustment or something bent

How does it compare with the passenger side? Could be something bent or maybe even caster. Did the driver side get impacted by anything?

No I have already had a Dent repaired by the dent Doctor paintless dent removal ,A guy backed into as I was driving past I was in a parking lot going about 15mph,and he gunned his Chrysler 300 backing up ,I have 1 inch spacers on my wheel to make them fill out the fender well better so the quarter didn't take all the impact the Rim and tire did

If the wheel/tire took a lot of the impact then I will assume something got bent or the caster is way out of spec. I would take it to an alignment shop and have them check it out. Did you happen to see if the passenger side wheel and gap look the same?

That looks waaaayy off. Just looked at the side of mine and it is even all around the tire. Something is bent IMHO.

Yep is even all the way around on the other side but I can't see anything bent. Its a inch of on the side of my picture up front of the wheel well

Switch the wheels and see how they look on different sides.

Why switch the wheels?

Just to confirm it’s the hub that’s off alignment and not the wheel

tredye · 03-28-2019, 07:15 PM

I took the wheel and the hub is moved back to the rear 1 inch

tredye · 03-28-2019, 07:17 PM

Can The rear camber be adjusted on a 2012 ?

tredye · 03-29-2019, 10:29 AM

Took it back to the statefarm adjuster put it on a lift top control arm bent!!! He getting my dealer to or get the parts hope to get it fix next week

Nice. At least they were able to track it down and get it fixed for you. Hopefully a quick turn around.
