I NEED HELP!!!
So I went to many local auto care stores to get my mercedes car alignment and Not one of them would do a car alignment for mercedes. Can anyone help me or recommend me to which store i can get a car alignment in the US. Franchise wise. Thank You
Indicating your city and state may be helpful.
Strange, most franchise stores will perform an alignment, however, many owners claim concerns finding shop calibration data varies per shop guides and are posting to find the exact data. This means the manual or computer look-up info. is often wrong per your year/model. Not good.
I had an independent, foreign, specialty shop do mine as it's a 4-wheel alignment procedure. They charged about $150. The shop owner invested in the alignment gear as he found most retail tire shops did not do the job properly.

I live in Orlando, Florida. I'll probably go check out the foreign auto shops tomorrow and see what they can do. The only store that I found that would do the alignment for me was GOODYEAR, but since I lowered my car they say they need the new alignment specs for my car, which i do not what the hell they're talking about. I thought the Benz Standards alignment specs work with/without the car being lowered. I have no idea
Well, in LB one guy quoted me at $125 for a lifetime alignment. I got mine done in East Los and it's a 4 wheel computer alignment for $55 bucks but there's no warranty. The guy did a good job since tire wear is actually pretty good now.
