Hey guys, I lent my car to my dad while i was overseas, and now the car pulls to the right, do I need to get Tesla service to do the alignment, or can I go to the local tyre shop? I know there's a software alignment in the service menu, and I'm wondering if tyre places tent to have the lifting pucks?

No tire needs to be lifted off the ground for the alignment so there's no need for the pucks.
A generic mechanic can do tire service, including wheel alignment, and you don't have to go to Tesla.
However, they might depend on the software from their alignment machine. If they didn't pay for the software, they may not want to manually do it even when you give them the specs from the owner's manual.

Most places can do it. If you are in Melbourne I highly recommend TruTrack. Impeccable service, cost a little more (still cheaper than Tesla) but they do a great job.
