Default Alignment? Problem

It needs an alignment and by someone that knows what they are doing. A
four wheel alignment is critical and a pain in the ass to do properly.
Now, you do need to make sure that all your bushings are good as I have
a 92 and mine were shot. I bought a complete set of Urethane bushings
from Mid America. Once you know all the components are in good working
order you will need to ask around. It does not matter that the
alignment machine is new or laser. What matters is the technician knows
what they are doing. Also, be sure to sit in the car when the alignment
is done so the specs are with you in the car. If you weigh 200 or more
you will mess with the alignment...
