VZ SV6 manual
Just had 30k service and dealer reported inside of front left badly worn (stuffed).
Not trusting dealer as had other past problems with them took car to Bridgestone agent who checked alignment and reported left front camber +0deg 8min, right front -1deg 8 min. Adjusted to L -0d21m R -0d20m. Rears OK.
Left front had been running on inside of tyre and tyre mob maintain has been that way from start. Would take almighty knock to get that far out which hasn't happened. No report by dealer on earlier services though.
Taking up with original sales person as have no joy with service agent and trying for at least one new tyre.
Any other experiences along these lines?

a surprisingly small knock against the curb when on full lock as in doing a U turn can put the camber out
