Then as I saw the mechanic playing around with the computer while the car was on the lift and going through menu and clicking OK on everything... I realised why it was so cheap. I started asking him questions about the car, and he only mentioned yes, no to my opened ended questions and said no speak english soon there after. Well the rest should not need an explanation.
I left the place to test drive the car... the steering wheel was not straight and the car kept pulling to the right. Went back the guy who gave me a dirty look when i pulled in again. He didnt put the sensors on the wheels to check stuff just fidled under the car for 5 min gave it an eye examination and said i was good to go. Soon after i realised nothing was changed and it was the same.
POINT OF THE STORY.... this place sucks for 4 wheel alignment. You get what you pay for.
