compression rod replacement

Having my front compression rod replaced at dealer as we speak. My question is do I need to have a wheel alignment performed due to this?

FYI- This was the thrid time taking it to infinit for the suspesnion creaking noise. first lube, then soem BS part replaced and finally compression rod. I know the sounds will evnetually come back, but atleast now I have a record of the problem and fix.

Congrats for finally getting your dealer to solve the source of the problem! Good news - you do NOT need to align the car after replacing the compression rods.

I got my front end compression rods replaced a while ago at the dealer, and I didn't need to get a wheel alignment done.

Doubt it - unless it's a TSB - and even if it is many dealers don't know or care that it's a TSB and will try to suck the money from you pockets like crack hungry ******.

Well, on the back of the Infiniti receipt, it says that limited warranty for replacement parts and accessories is good for 12 months or 12,000 miles, whichever comes first, from the date of purchase. I assume that if the compression rods start to get noisy before 12 months or 12K miles, you have a fair case of bringing the car to the dealer to get them replaced under that limited warranty policy.
