Jag,
I had a pull to the right at the original factory -.05, -.05 until I gave the dealer the -.02, -.05 settings. I've had it realigned again at 16,000 miles and now 24,000 it's still wearing even, tracking straight.

They usually don't have the tools to adjust rear caster (although they won't tell you that) but rear caster won't affect pulling to the right.

I respect the reply to my post, juanvaldez, and I admit I don't know a thing about alignment, or anything technical, but if I am reading correctly, it's asymmetrical rear caster adjustment that is causing traction loss, pulling to the right, and the crashes spoken of in that thread.

Caster has little effect on the car when the car is going straight as in cruising down the highway.

I went in to my guy ahead of time and had the service writer check for the tools. ( I had the factory memo with photo's with me) They had the brackets but not the gauge. It took them a week to get it sent in.
