Why don’t new Nissan Pathfinders and Frontiers come with eccentric bolts and washers?

The Nissan dealership says they don’t come with eccentric bolts and washers, which according to them is necessary for proper alignment.
They want me to have them installed.

Pedro does not like us crooked dealerships. Nissan can build plenty of trucks with out eccentric bolts because fixtures hold everything aligned then tighten the lower control arm bolts next the eccentric guide plates are welded in place. You have to let the car or truck settle before aligning any way. Generally all the rubber bushings and suspension rubber take a set around 10 to 12.000 miles. Because warranty covers adjustments for one year 12,000 miles (you get the idea). That darn truck is less than one year old and pulls to the right better align it for free.
