Arrow Dealerships Outsource Alignments To Local Shops ?

I call the dealer and they charged me an expensive price for an alignment. However someone was mentioning that the dealers do not do the alignments at the dealer but at local shops. Is this true ?

I replied on your other post but my answer is they send them out, at least the dealer by me. Look for an alignment specialty shop in your area.

Look into the service area and if you see an alignment rack they probably do it in house.

Cool alignment

Monte Shelton of Portland Or told me that they would charge $75.00 per ANGLE adjustment!

The local Alignment speciality shop 3mins from my work charged $75.00 for a 4 wheel alignment.

What alignment shop did you use? In Vancouver? My XK8 is due and a friend's Audi as well.
Thanks, Mike
