Default Laser Alignment?

I had my CX-9 for service and had a laser alignment done due to hitting tons of potholes this Winter. Shouldn’t alignment numbers match Left to Right? The numbers aren’t labeled by have an icon. Final: For Front Camber the Left is -0.5 and Right is -0.6. For Rear Camber the Left is -1.4 and the Right is -1.3. Comments?

Most likely those figures are in millimeters,( my alignment machine is ) I doubt anyone could even tell the difference between 0.5 & 0.6 mm.

Factory front toe spec is +/- 2mm

It very time consuming and very frustrating to try to equal both final measurements. I mean a bird can sheeet on your hood during the setting and readings that can change it... LOL kidding but you get the point.
Those final alignment numbers are within the specification and like Grime no one could feel the difference or have adverse wear on your tires. You got a good alignment.

Thanks for the replies. I asked because my former B girlfriend had her Fusion aligned at her dealer the numbers were equal! Maybe a perfectionist works there!

Honestly this is a MAZDA forum and comparing a very different platform does not help support your response. We were talking about your MAZDA and not a Ford Fusion. Also unless you post the actual final report we are only letting you know that your posted results are very normal. There are other variables that neither I or grime thought necessary to ask that you did not provide in your first post because we both thought your alignment was right on par with GOOD!
