Constant alignment issues

[Woody98]

Since hitting a pothole about a year to 18 mmonths ago, I've had constant alignment issues. Ive had new tyres, wheel alignments by the dozen and 3 mechanics have looked over the suspension, steering and everything and found nothing

Has anyone else experienced this?

Can't offer any suggestions to your issues, but when you say alignment issues what do you actually mean? - it's a vague subject that could cover a whole host of different things.

Was one of the garages Hyundai or all independents?

By alignments I mean the way the car droves, its either fidgety or its pulling one way or another.

I've had it checked by my hyundai dealership who some how didnt have the tools to fix it, no alignment ramp or anything. Otherwise i've been to other reputable garages in my local area

Seems like alignment values aren't correct for you vehicle. Broken parts or Damaged wheel? Have you put the fronts on the rear yet? Otherwise find better mechanics

Its been done on the hunter laser system, from what I understand they should have the information for the alignment specs on the car

As far as I know the last time that was done was a while back, im getting it again looked at later this week, so ill ask for them to be swapped then as I dont have the tools to do it myself

I meant the last time the tyres were rotated was a little while ago

Have them give you a printout of the alignment specs they use along with the before and after adjustment readings. Device used to check alignment is not as important as the techs understanding and making correct adjustments. Look back to see if you're got any older printouts to see if alignments are changing between adjustments. 4-Tire rotation practices vary by tech so unless you mark the tires/wheels before rotating it's unlikely you'd notice, unless there's a change in handling or vibration. Are you running the same tire at each position? What's the vehicle's history, year, mileage, pre-owned?
