Default Alignment question

My C6 ('09 coupe, F55, 8K miles, del Dec '09, A6) is starting to pull a bit to the right and I want to get it corrected.

Regarding the 3/36 warranty, does it allow me to get a 4 wheel alignment as part of the warranty at no cost to me? If not, I have a place I would use. Thanks.

You can try, but I doubt it.

It should be covered if under 12 months/12K miles.

Good luck, I doubt they will cover this....you might be in for a battle. Warranty work on the line is hard to come by these days.

Unfortunately your 500 miles over. GM does not advertise but they will pay for it up to 7500 miles. Had it done on my 06 roadster and my Z. Two buddies had done to theirs also.
We learned this though our dealers service manager.

After talking to the service department, this is exactly the mileage cutoff for the alignment to be done under warranty.

Thanks for the help.

Nope. Find a good alignment shop - preferably one that uses Hunter equipment and a tech that aligns race cars. Talk to the tech about what you are looking for in an alignment. Read up on it here: http://www.pfadtracing.com/blog/wp-c...-alignment.pdf
