Uneven tread wear of left front tire. (corporate claims my vehicle is not affected since the technical service bulletin is not pulled up by my VIN, but my tire proves otherwise.)

The tires have worn out to the metal after 5000 miles as the alignment was per the service tech - sent out incorrectly at the factory- the vehicle was kept for over 30 days.. judging from user forums this seems to be happening on a frequent basis
