Default TSB on 04 GTO tire wear

What do I do for the TSB for the GTO so the tires don't rub on the strut mount. Is it something the dealership will fix for free?

looks like an alignment will fix the problem, right?

Last weekend I rotated my tires to check out said problem and noted the labels were rubbed and the strut was showing a bit of wear. Tires were OK.

So I took mine in yesterday for an alignment, called 5 local dealerships (prior) in the Southeast Michigan area and none of the service rep's know of anything.

Given there are parameters or + & - factors I asked the alignment guy to tip the tires away from the strut.

You will need new strut tower bushings. My dealer fixed the problem and gave me a new set of front tires. Just need to find the right dealership.

Do that and say goodbye to good cornering.
