Doing the caster swing, as it is called (that's the initial movement of the steering wheel, to the left and right), it shows the camber readings, as you have put up.....So yes they checked it, with the initial swing....That's why it is done....To see what the camber/ caster and toe settings are, before making any adjustments....And to me, it seems like they were happy with the camber readings, hence not touching the thing.
When I align a car, my employer doesn't charge extra for doing a camber/caster adjustment, if it is required...Maybe the place you went to operates the same way, which I say is the best way....
I couldn't careless if you have 50 cars or 1 car....This thread is about 1 car and the fact you are complaining that they didn't adjust the camber, when it obviously seems like they didn't feel it necessary to adjust it....Not having any mileage on the tyres, as such, (and I'm up with mileage vs kilometres), I still say you are complaining unnecessarily about the job...
There is no bullshit put on any sheet, from what you have written.....When you learn how the modern alignment machines work, then you will understand that SLIGHT variation is normal and WON'T effect tyre wear....Unless what you have written is the BULLSHIT part of the camber settings....
As for a current affairs.....If you go to them, with this bullcrap complaint, please put up the footage.....If they bother to do any research, you will be made out to be the fool.....
The same applies if you take them to court.....Please let me know when the proceedings are going to happen, so I can be in the court room and have a laugh.....Yeah, I might end up going behind those doors, for disrupting the court room with my laughter, but it'd be worth it, hearing your hefty legal bill that you'd cop
I've been aligning cars for decades and have come across your sort of thing before and I can tell you, you are trying to make a mountain out of a mole hill....That simple.....I've tried to explain to you in simple terms, what has been done seems to be all above board and no conspiracy to rip you off or take advantage of you......
