Driver's side Tire Wear

So my '05 Sport Edition was a demo and had 5,000 miles when I purchased it. I noticed the inside of the Dunlop tire on the DRIVER'S SIDE was wearing. They rotated it to the back and did the alignment. Now it seem it's happening again to the tire that was rotated from the rear. I checked the passenger's side and found no abnormal wear. Do you guys have any suggestions as to how to fix this? Should I take it back to the dealer or a good alignment shop? Some place with a Hunter alignment machine maybe? Thanks in advance!!

It is very common for the opposite side to slightly wear more than any other part of the tire (the outside edge especially the passenger side) on most vehicles. So I do believe that you have something that is not in spec.
