Hello, All & Happy New Year!

I purchased new tires this past Sunday for our 2006 Pacifica. The Firestone installer claimed the rear tires are out of line. Does anyone have the proper rear camber, toe, and caster alignment range?? I don't know if this was a sales squeeze or if it's legitimate.

THANKS!

 

I've always thought that an alignment was a good investment after purchasing new tires. If you don't like what Firestone says, take it elsewhere and see if you get the same story. You do have adjustable rear alignment so it is not beyond possibility that it could be out of range. I think I paid $49 for my last on the Pacifica with a 30 day warranty. Not bad.

 

Four weeks ago we had to have the front outer tie rods replaced after 31,000 miles (seems to be a common theme among some Chrysler models) and it was just aligned.

 

I think I would go back to where the tie rod work was done then. Dealer? 4 weeks is roughly the average warranty on a base alignment. See if they would re-check it.
