Who is telling you?
What problem is the adjustment supposed to address?
If non-adjustable geometry is out, something must be bent or wrongly fitted.

Then get whoever told you 4 wheel tracking is needed to be safe. And of course ask them what can be adjusted.

But on most standard cars, there is minimal to no adjustment on most things.

However....that doesnt mean it isnt a bad idea to check alignment all round, as it could indicate a problem whether with suspension or chassis. But if so, that lack of adjustment may mean something is bent and needs repaired/replaced.
