When I bought a new set of tires for my 2002 Toyota Tacoma, which I drove to NH from California, from a dealer in Meredith now out of business. They failed to balance them.

This was during COVID and they were the only supplier, at the time, that I could find that would allow contact with the public.

It was during my first ride on RT. 93 at speeds over 60 that I discovered severe vibrations. I had assumed balancing and alignment had been done. I was wrong.

I had to wait for Irwin Toyota to re-open to the public and they balanced and aligned my wheels and life was good again.
