Default Front end allignment adjustment? What can be adjusted

Took ours to the dealer yesterday to have the alignement checked as I just got my new tires on. Also had the ECM replaced under the warranty as others have done last year.

We got it back and the specs still show the front caster out of specs on the right wheel. Does anyone know if the caster is adjustable on the front wheels. I don't have a manual. If anyone has one can you look it up and tell me.

My wife picked it up and they just told her that it was not adjustable and would not effect tire wear anyway.

Front toe and camber via "looser" bolts (camber bolts designed for +- 0.5 deg) Caster is NOT adjustable and indeed it would take a LARGE out of spec value to effect tire wear.
