i think 1 with in the first 12k miles.

but the dealer may be subjective, I.E. if you lowered your car and want the free alignment.

Doesn't the warranty state any alignment issue is covered for the first 12 months/12K miles? How can they deny warranty work if you are having alignment issues (pulling, uneven tire wear, etc.)?

US Warranty for 2005

I RTFM'd my manual, and it seems to say you have a 12 month 12,000 mile warranty. Not just once. You get as many as you need, as long as the dealer can't prove abuse or accident.
I had to educate my service advisor about the wording in the manual, after he told me you get one, as long as it is less than 2,000 miles.
I could not find the warranty manual online, I guess it would make the rest of the world jealous if they saw the US warranty. Sorry, my portable scanner is not very good quality.
