Default what can be done

what can be done about the allignment? i took it to a honda shop and they "fixed it". when i got it back it was a little better and on the reciept it said that there wasn't much that they could do. is that the truth or is it just some kind of cop-out to not do a better job?
i got it used and that's how it was when i got it.

Need more specifics.......What DID they dealership do as far as alignment goes. Did they change Camber, Caster, or Toe? Do you have the final settings that they set it to? Try another dearlership or good independant shop (good word of mouth) and see what they say or take it back and complain.

Also, you might have something bent in your suspension. Does your car pull to the left or right?

yeah they gave me the final adjustments as to what they did and told me that that was the best that they could do.

Some of the spec's an alignment shop will give you are non-adjustable on an Accord. You can take it to a frame shop and they can make the necessary corrections.
