Default Alignment

I have a few questions about getting my car aligned. I want to get a basic alignment to factory specs and was wondering where would be a good place to have this done. I have narrowed it down to three options near me: the dealership I bought the car from - Weymouth Honda, NTB, or Bernardi Honda - which I hear has a good service department. I really don't drive the car hard and I don't feel I need to go crazy with getting it perfect or sitting in the car or anything like that. I just want it done right by people who will take decent care of the car and not scratch the rims, scrape the front, etc. I was also wondering, since I only have about 2400 miles on the car, if I might be able to get it done under warranty. It has felt a little off since I first picked the car up, but I always assumed it was the poor roads. Now that I have driven it more, I think it may have been slightly off when I picked it up. Any experiences, reccomendations, or advice on the topic would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I was actually going to post about this info:

Curry Honda in Chicopee got brand new state of the art alignment machine a few months ago. They have since then aligned 2 S2ks including mine. I can't be much happier cause they also found a bent control arm in the process and my car will be going back to the collision repair shop soon for this - it was in an accident last June.

I know this is 1.5 hour drive from Boston, but when I was looking for a decent shop last year, no one could recomend one.

As for getting it done under warranty, I think Honda has a policy about this. They won't pay for alignment bofore 6000 miles since they feel that's when the suspension finally settles down. You might want to check with your dealership.

If your car only has 2400 miles, you should be able to get your alignment checked for free at your local Honda dealer. That said, it would help if you can validate your claim that your alignment is off by a large margin.
