Wheel bent inward

SOURCE: 2002 dodge stratus rear left

can you send a picture,

SOURCE: I am always replacing front tires due to alignment

It sure sounds to me that the gentleman or lady in charge of aligning your vehicle wasn't doin the job properly.The entire vehicle's suspension needs to be checked for visible damage or worn out parts before the alignment.Had this been done then they would have seen why the back tire is leaning in like it is.I suggest that you take the vehicle elsewhere.....just for your safety alone.You do not want to be driving a vehicle whose suspension may fail at any time and put you in harms way....HOPE I COULD HELP!!!

SOURCE: back right wheel tilts inward. strut broke or

It could be a damaged strut but if it hit a curb it would more likely tilt out. Some of those had an eccentric bolt that allowed adjustment of the camber. Have a tire shop look at it and determine if a bolt has come loose and allowed it to slip.

SOURCE: I have a 1997 Ford

Yes loosening the top strut/bracket is needed to adjust the alignment, the rear should be fine unless there is damage to rear suspension compontents that need replaced, however for that vehicle just the front.

SOURCE: my ford focus 2003 has a sound in the front wheel pasenger side like this: thump, thump, thump. I install new tie rod end, inner tide rod, new tires, front and rear end alignment. ?whaat is the proble

have someone drive it while you listen from outside the car. this could be achieved in a parking lot. it could be an inner fender touching your tire when you get up to speed due to air hitting it.
