Suspension problem

Front suspension does not have adjustable camber. The wheels have a negative camber that Is outside of Lexus specification. This causes a very large uneven wear inside of tire, which Is not noticeable from the exterior of car. Owners will be unaware, when checking the tires, that the inside of tire Is worn to a point that can cause the tire to burst. Car was sent to the dealer, and they confirm that the negative camber Is present and there Is no fix because camber can't be adjusted. There Is no warning lights or symptoms prior to failure. Vehicle suspension Is not modified with non-Toyota approved equipment.
