I don't know if its the same as it was 9 years ago when I worked for the "stealership", but back then you had 1 alignment within the 1st year and within 12,000 miles.....unless of course they needed to replace a front end part, then it would be paid under warranty(36/36).

Before I took it back, I'd crawl up under the truck and do a thorough inspection of all your steering components to make sure nothing is already completely loose or about to come completely loose. I've heard of the tierod adjuster being left loose and coming completely disengaged. Inspect before you drive.
