Hey, Gurus.

Looking at a nice sport example with less than 50k miles that shows a repeated need for four wheel alignment and camber adjustments. I count 4 since new addressing a need to center the steering wheel and requiring long-drive testing. Have any of you experienced an issue like this or heard of one? I'm wondering if it's a simple fix or a gremlin that should dissuade me from pursuing. Any thoughts are welcome.
 
All at the same location? Could be as simple as the shop repeatedly not torquing the bolts to spec which will allow the alignment to drift. My alignment shop was surprised how high the value is when I asked to verify they were going to spec.

Yes, same Lexus dealer for the majority of the maintenance and alignments with the last service and alignment having been done for L/Cert. at a different Lexus dealer.

My LC came new with the steering wheel not centered and it took 3 tries at 2 different dealerships to get it right. I don’t know if that’s the case with the LX.
