Q: Alignment issue
Hello, I seem to have an alignment issue on my camaro. The front right tires are wearing down significantly more than the other tires. Specifically on the outter rim of the tire. Every time I get it aligned, about a week passes before I start seeing the uneven wear return on the same front right tire. I got it looked at by multiple mechanics to try and find the problem on why it keeps getting unaligned. They said all my bushings looked good and they even replaced my front shocks but none of that fixed the issue: it still gets out of alignment everytime. The mechanic that put in the new shocks said that its just because my car was old and it would need to be aligned often. But every week? Any possible solutions? Thank you

Changed camshaft sensor but car still won't start, could it be the crankshaft sensor?
Hello, thanks for writing in. Most of the time, this code comes up when there is a difference between the crank and cam sensors. The most common failure is the crankshaft position sensor (https://www.yourmechanic.com/article/symptoms-of-a-bad-or-failing-crankshaft-position-sensor). These fail much more frequently (https://www.yourmechanic.com/article/how-long-does-a-crankshaft-position-sensor-last)...
