Where would you take it that doesn't have a vested interest in doing a poor job?
I don't know that I necessarily agree that a tire shop would intentionally do a bad job aligning your car. After all, why would anyone go back to them if they did such a bad job. I had mine done by a tire shop, and they did a nice job. If they did a bad job, I would never go back to them.
