Default 2004 Civic Hybrid Camber Issue

My 2004 Civic Hybrid Camber, still under warranty, Honda Dealer has tells me initially I have a camber issue with "bent frame"old. So I take it to a frame shop. Frame shop tells me Frame is within range. Then Honda Dealer tells my tires are a problem. Frame shop agrees. Tires are under warranty. Tire shop tells me, yes tires need replacing but there is a camber issue. me bad tires (have tires under warranty, and tire store prints off camber issue. Now I'm hearing "Rear Control Arms". I'm not a mechanic and I could use some guidance on how to talk to the dealer. My car has spent more than a week in the shop. I have it home and sounds like its up to me to take control. Thanks.

What are your camber specs in back all around? ( you can just scan the print out from a alignment shop)

i think i have the same problem as you. even after an alignment my back rear tire is like this |-----\ . people can't really tell not unless i point it out. some people on here and civicforums told me to get a rear camber kit to see if that fixes the problem. but it doesn't bug me that much i don't get that much tire wear.

ps: previous owner was in a rear end accident resulting to salvage title.
