Yes, take it to an alignment place.
If you have a Sears automotive center.Take it there.
I had an issue with my rear toe and the 3 alignment shops i took it to couldnt fix it.
It just so happens that the tech @ sears that did my rear alignment has a 6th gen accord and knew how to fix it.

they have to know I assume. Based on the problems i experienced with these techs not knowing anything.

Holy crap I pay like $60 at the local shop, I could go back twice and still have cash in the pocket at those prices...

It's a lifetime alignment so you would save in the future if you keep your car for more than 3 years.
So far, i've gotten 5 alignments (2 tires and 3 collision) so it is a good deal.

I've kept the car 6.5-yrs so far...but I've lived in 3 Cities and 2 states to date with it...so fat chance at going back to the same shop.
