I recently bought a 12k mile used 2021 Premium ER AWD from a local Ford dealer.
I measured the rear wheels with a camber gauge and they're measuring around -3.25 degrees on both sides. This is with an empty vehicle. My understanding is spec is -1.30 +/- 0.75 so this is out of spec.
Called the dealer service department and they said Ford only covers alignments for 12 months from new, and the dealership did not offer any warranty on alignment. So I would have to pay for it myself.
My questions:
Should I worry about having this corrected? I am concerned about abnormal tire wear.
Does the rear suspension have adjustable camber? If not, is there a mod kit available?
Any suggestions on taking it to my favorite local repair shop instead of the stealership? Are they going to know how to deal with this vehicle?
