Howdy Folks,
I have a reoccuring issue with my alignment and was wondering if anyone could recommend an alignment shop in Los Angeles. About 6 months I ended up doing a 360 and wound up on hitting the curb with my with both my front and rear tires. The impact was pretty brutal.
To make a long story short, I've been to 3 dealers and 5 alignments, but so far nothing has worked! After a while, the car will slowly go out of alignment. I had the car checked and there is no frame damage or misalignment.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

I would think that even if things were bent that only thinks that cound move would get you out of allignment. Tie rod ends, struts, etc. If they were able to get the thing alligned and all the related componetnts were good and tight, I don't see how having a bent frame or bent anything would all of a sudden throw it out.
What is going out of specs? Front, back, camber, caster, tow in?

Fellas,
Thanks so much for the info!!! This board rocks. As for the misalignment, the car will slowly go out of alignment after I get the car back. It typically goes out to the left but, once it went out to the right. Also, the degree of misalignment can get pretty severe if I don't bring it in. In otherwords, the longer I don't get the realignment, the more the misalignment will increase. This is easy to tell by how much the steering wheel is off center.
The car has already been checked for frame damage. Luckly that is not the case! Also the car does NOT feel like it is drifting when I am driving straight. But in order to drive straight, the steering wheel is really off center (i.e. 13-20 degrees).
Finally, thanks so much for the shop recomendation! I will definitely call them next week.
